Abstract
In this study, turbine instantaneous power measurements were conducted under both three-cylinder mode and two-cylinder modes. Negative turbine power was measured during the trough of a pulse, indicating that both turbine and compressor absorb energy from the rotating inertial during that period. This study found the negative turbine work can take up approximately 15% of turbine net work under 20â¯Hz pulses. This percentage is even more once one or more cylinders are deactivated. This paper highlighted that if not considering the negative efficiency, it will result in an error shaft speed prediction, and thereby may affect the overall performance of turbocharger even engines.
