Abstract

A two-stage sequential turbocharging system was proposed in order to meet the power output requirements for diesel engine within the altitude range from zero to 5 500 meters. Based on the required power recovery of CA6DL2 engine, the specific parameters of the turbocharging system were calculated and the low-pressure turbocharger was chosen. The software GT-Power was used to calculate the engine's performance at different altitudes. The simulation results show that, due to a good match with the two-stage sequential turbocharging system, the engine power can be recovered to 80 percent at 5 500 meters while keeping no change at sea level.
