| Abstract: | This study aims to evaluate the downsizing capability of active control turbocharger (ACT) by means of computer simulation approach. One dimensional simulation package was used to model a commercial 13L diesel engine equipped with variable geometry turbocharger (VGT) and a 10L diesel engine equipped ACT. The 10L ACT engine delivered up to 34.42% of higher brake power than 13L VGT engine at 1000RPM and below, but for the higher engine speed, 13L VGT engine delivered higher brake power (up to 14.5%) than 10L ACT engine. |
