The paper describes the results of a major development programme in association with industry on a prototype variable geometry turbocharger turbine coupled to a wide mass flow range compressor, and the matching of this unit to a standard Perkins T 6.354 engine.The performance target for the turbine was a mass flow turn down ratio of 2:1 and achievement of potential torque back up of 50% at half of rated engine speed.The results are described under the following headings: The paper concludes with a discussion of the potential of V.G. turbocharging in commercial applications.
