Definitions
- Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to multi-stage turbocharger assemblies.
- embodiments of the present disclosure relate to multi-stage turbocharger assemblies having one or more high pressure and one low pressure unit.
- Multi-stage turbochargers have separate turbocharger units that are connected to each other and to a charge air path of the engine (e.g., through an intercooler).
- the turbine casings are interconnected by exhaust ducts that allow hot gases to flow through;
- the engine exhaust is first routed to a high pressure turbine inlet, then via the high pressure turbine and through the high pressure turbine outlet to the low pressure turbine inlet, and finally via the low pressure turbine and through the exhaust path to atmosphere by means of exhaust manifolds.
- This type of architecture requires a large assembly footprint (i.e., the space required to mount an assembled unit) on an engine installation, as well as multiple piping connections, bellows, brackets, couplings, insulation, and brackets for structural enhancement. designed to reduce pipeline vibration and prevent failure modes.
- such an arrangement is of considerable complexity in terms of component assembly, bill of materials and service. In onboard engine assemblies, where clearances are of paramount importance, the space requirements of multi-stage turbochargers are a particular concern.

- the first and second axis of rotation can therefore both run horizontally, both vertically, or one each horizontally and one vertically.
- the low-pressure turbocharger shaft can run horizontally and the high-pressure turbocharger shaft can run vertically.
- the designation "horizontal” designates a direction running in the x-direction ⁇ 15% of a Cartesian coordinate system and the designation “vertical” designates a direction running in the y-direction ⁇ 15% of a Cartesian coordinate system.
- Such planes are to be understood as horizontal planes , which have an extension in the x-direction and an extension in the z-direction of a Cartesian coordinate system.

- FIGS. 3A and 3B and a particularly compact arrangement show that the low pressure turbine and the high pressure turbine discharge the exhaust gas radially and the high pressure turbine directs the exhaust gas in a generally vertical direction via the high pressure turbine outlet 112 to the low pressure turbine unit.
- the low-pressure turbine unit has, as the low-pressure turbine 123, a reverse-flow turbine in which the exhaust gas is flown in radially (and flown out axially).
- a straight vertical flow without the deflection shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B and a particularly compact arrangement are possible.
- the modular design means that both normal operation (as illustrated in Fig. 3A and 3B) and operation with reverse flow (as illustrated in Fig. 3.A and 3B illustrated) can be guaranteed with the same housing units for the high and low pressure.rbolad.eranordnu.ngen.
- embodiments as described herein offer the advantage that two or more separate turbines can be spaced apart so that the exhaust gas flow that is routed through the exhaust pipe from the high-pressure turbine to the low-pressure turbine is the shortest route , is optimized. This allows for the elimination of connecting piping within the various turbine stages, and the reverse flow turbine allows for the. hot gases to flow through the various stages with minimal disruption to the natural flow of gases.
