REQUIREMENTS FOR THE EXPLOITATION OF HEAT IN A TURBOCK PRESSOR OF A FUEL-RAPPING MACHINE AND FUEL-RAPPING MACHINERY

摘要

Method of utilizing waste heat in a turbocharger unit of an internal combustion engine unit having means for recovering heat from the combustion process, the engine unit comprising a turbocharger unit adapted to feed pressurized combustion air to the engine and to receive exhaust gases from the engine, wherein the means for recovering heat is producing steam, which is generated using waste heat from the engine and wherein the steam is injected to the turbocharger unit and the energy of steam is at least partially recovered in the turbocharger. The invention relates also to an internal combustion engine arrangement which comprises means for recovering heat from the combustion process and a turbocharger unit adapted to feed pressurized combustion air to the engine and to receive exhaust gases from the engine. The turbocharger unit is provided with a steam injection arrangement connected with the means for recovering heat.
