A convenient way of modelling turbochargers is based on data maps. These models are easy to put into place, require low CPU charge and are control-oriented. Data relative to compressor and turbine are read from tables: pressure ratio and efficiency are determined as functions of mass flow rate and rotary speed on two distinct data maps. Nevertheless, this type of model has drawbacks: The present paper develops a new extra/interpolation model incorporating physical laws. An analysis of turbo-machinery equations is performed. A new approach for extra-interpolating performance maps, which satisfies the physical laws stated in turbomachinery equations, is derived from this work. Results from this new model are compared with standard methods.The major conclusions drawn from this study are: 1 - The new model improves the simulation accuracy while keeping the same easiness of use and robustness. 2 - Extrapolation in the low rpm zone is derived from physical equations. 3 -This method is applicable to both compressor and turbine. 4 - The pressure ratio and efficiency maps are now linked.
