Abstract: A compressor assembly (304) includes a compressor housing (312) having a main air inlet (324) and an annular wall (328) defining an inducer bore (325). A secondary inlet passage (322) is disposed around the inducer bore (325). The secondary inlet passage (322) has an inlet slot (320) operatively intersecting the inducer bore (325) to permit the entry of a fluid thereinto through an inlet port (327). The inlet slot (320) advantageously defines an augmented inducer diameter region (331). Preferably the secondary inlet passage (322) may be selectively partially or completely isolated from the main air inlet (324). A compressor wheel (318) is located in the compressor housing (312) and has a stepped portion (330) formed by at least one plurality of vanes (238) operatively associated with the augmented inducer diameter region (331) adjacent to the inlet slot (320) of the housing (312) to receive fluid therefrom.

Abstract: A control system (58) for controlling the extent to which a valve (50) selectively by-passes exhaust flow around one of two turbines (18T, 20T) in an engine exhaust system (14). A desired set-point (TCBC_DES) and the actual set-point of operation of the valve are used to develop a set-point error for closed-loop control of the actual set-point. A data value for closed-loop gain is selected from a schedule (164, 166) based on engine speed and fueling. The selected data value of closed-loop gain and the set-point error data value are used to create a data value for a closed-loop output (TCBC_DTY_PIF) that is used to create a data value for a final output for forcing the actual set-point to the desired set-point.
