TLDR
In this article, a split exhaust flow system for a multi-cylinder internal combustion engine with an exhaust-driven supercharger of the turbocompressor type is presented, where each cylinder of the engine has both a first exhaust valve and a second exhaust collector common to the cylinders.
Abstract
Exhaust flow system for a split exhaust flow in a multi-cylinder internal combustion engine (3) fitted with an exhaust-driven supercharger (2) of the turbocompressor type, whose exhaust system incorporates a catalytic exhaust cleaner (58; 58'), where each cylinder of the engine has both a first exhaust valve (51), from which released exhaust gas is fed to a first exhaust collector (53) common to the cylinders, which collector is connected directly to the exhaust turbine inlet by a first exhaust branch pipe (54), and a second exhaust valve (52), from which released exhaust gas is fed to an exhaust pipe (56), which incorporates a silencer (61). At least one valve (50) adjustable according to the operating conditions of the engine (3), is arranged downstream from the second exhaust valves (52) of the cylinders, in their connection (59, 55, 57) to the exhaust pipe (56) between the exhaust turbine outlet (20) and the silencer (61).
