Abstract: A turbocharger for an engine is provided. The turbocharger has a turbine and a housing enclosing the turbine. The housing has a first annular passageway and a second annular passageway. Both of the first and second annular passageways extend to the turbine. The turbocharger also has a valve mechanism disposed within an inlet of the housing. The valve mechanism has a valve element pivotally attached to a portion of the housing. The valve element is movable between a first position at which exhaust flow through the first annular passageway is blocked and a second position at which exhaust flows through both of the first and second annular passageways. A controller controls positioning of the valve element based on a sensed operational parameter of the engine and also controls functions of the engine.

Abstract: A turbocharger for a power system is provided. The turbocharger has a turbine and a housing enclosing the turbine. The housing has a first annular passageway and a second annular passageway. Both of the first and second annular passageways extend from an inlet of the housing to the turbine. The turbocharger also has a valve mechanism disposed within the inlet of the housing. The valve mechanism has a valve element pivotally attached to an outer portion of the housing. The valve element is movable between a first position at which exhaust flow through the first annular passageway is blocked and a second position at which exhaust flows through both of the first and second annular passageways.
