The presentation will provide information on many years of simulation and 
engine testing focusing on improving steady state efficiency of a 7.8L diesel 
engine. The results shown will include the impact on emissions through changing 
steady state performance and comparisons against variable geometry 
turbochargers and 2 stage turbochargers.

The SuperTurbo(TM) is a fully mechanical driven turbocharger that provides the 
benefits of supercharging, turbocharging and turbo-compounding in one device. 
The SuperTurbo(TM) includes a high-speed traction drive that transfers 
bi-directional torque between the turbine shaft and a continuously variable 
transmission which then allows for overall ratio control between the turbo and 
the crankshaft.  Since the turbine shaft speed is controlled, concerns with 
overspeed or lag are eliminated allowing for heavier higher efficient turbine 
designs. Driven turbochargers provide the ability to precisely control and 
balance boost pressure and air fuel ratio. The controls can be used to optimize 
fuel efficiency and emissions per the OEM's objectives at different operating 
points.  

The SuperTurbo(TM) continues to demonstrate many valuable direct and enabling 
benefits for emission reduction and improved productivity. The ability to 
optimize air fuel ratio and eliminate over-fueling through transients has been 
shown to provide up to 10% of fuel efficiency improvement and CO2 reduction. 
SuperTurbos(TM) outfitted with a programmable turbine bypass can direct the 
engine exhaust to the aftertreatment for a rapid light off to minimize harmful 
NOx emissions during cold start while still maintaining vehicle drivability. 
SuperTurbo Technologies has completed several rounds of Should Cost studies 
with FEV to validate the costs and economics of the many different value 
propositions the SuperTurbo(TM) can provide.

About SuperTurbo Technologies Inc. 

SuperTurbo Technologies Inc. specializes in the design, development and 
commercialization of SuperTurbos(TM) for commercial vehicles for on highway and 
construction markets. The SuperTurbo(TM) is a mechanically driven turbocharger 
which allows engine OEMs to control the boost and air flow to the engine 
enabling optimization of both performance and emissions at all operating 
points. Other benefits include transient cycle efficiency, Cold Start/Low NOx, 
engine down-sizing, down-speeding and improved engine braking. The Large 
SuperTurbo has been designed to support engines from 7-16 liters with a 90% 
component standardization across applications. For more information, visit
