Abstract: A system for limiting rotational speed of a turbocharger includes means for determining a change in an engine operating parameter, a fueling system responsive to a fueling signal to supply fuel to the engine, and a controller determining a fueling command that is air-to-fuel or oxygen-to-fuel control (AFC/OFC) limited under certain engine operating conditions and is otherwise not AFC/OFC limited. The controller is operable to produce the fueling signal as a function of the fueling command, and to further limit the fueling signal according to a turbocharger speed fuel limit in a manner that limits the speed of the turbocharger to a first turbocharger speed limit whenever the fueling command is AFC/OFC limited. The controller is operable to remove the turbocharger speed fuel limit from the fueling signal when the change in the engine operating parameter exceeds a threshold value and the fueling command is thereafter no longer AFC/OFC limited.

Abstract: An exhaust gas recirculation and control system is provided for an internal combustion engine, wherein a portion of engine exhaust gas flow is recirculated through an EGR duct to engine intake air. The recirculated exhaust gas is pumped through the EGR duct by an EGR compressor driven by a dedicated EGR drive that is independently controllable. Because the EGR drive is independently powered and controlled, the EGR flow rate capacity of the system is not dictated by, or limited, by factors such as engine exhaust flow rate. A controller modulates power delivery to the drive means in response to at least one operating condition parameter in order to achieve a desired EGR flow rate. In order to further optimize efficiency, the EGR compressor is preferably a discrete displacement pump which is controllably drivable in a pulse-capture mode, wherein each intake of the EGR compressor is timed synchronously with exhaust pulses in the exhaust manifold.
