Abstract: In a method of controlling an exhaust gas turbocharger of an internal combustion engine charged by a compressor wherein as guide value for the control an operating point of the compressor is used, the operation of each cylinder bank of the internal combustion engine is controlled by dividing the total air mass flow by the number of cylinder banks and an equal amount of desired air mass flow is assigned to each cylinder bank and if the air mass flow to any of the cylinder banks is smaller than that to the other or others air from the other cylinder bank or banks is supplied to the one cylinder bank via a compensation arrangement so that the air mass flows to all cylinder banks are essentially equal.
