Pressure wave supercharger : ウィキペディア英語版 | Pressure wave supercharger A pressure wave supercharger (also known as a wave rotor〔(What is a Wave Rotor )〕) is a type of supercharger technology that harnesses the pressure waves produced by an internal combustion engine exhaust gas pulses to compress the intake air. Its automotive use is not widespread; the most widely used example is the ''Comprex'', developed by Brown Boveri.〔, issued 1988-10-19, assigned to BBC Brown Boveri AG, Baden, Switzerland〕〔, issued 1989-07-13, assigned to BBC Brown Boveri AG, Baden, Switzerland〕〔(A Review of Wave Rotor Technology and its Applications ) including details of Comprex supercharger〕 Valmet Tractors of Finland were one of the first to use the device when they fitted it to the 411CX engine which powered their 1203 model of 1980 Although it provided a useful increase in performance it was considered too expensive to be incorporated into later models. 〔Hannu Niskanen 'From Munktells to Valtra'〕 Ferrari tested such a device during the development of the 126C Formula One car. The system did not lend itself to as tidy an installation as the alternative twin-turbocharger layout, and the car was never raced in this form.〔''Ferrari'', Hans Tanner & Doug Nye, 1985〕 A more successful application was in the RF series diesel engine found in the 1988 Mazda 626 Capella; ultimately 150,000 Mazda diesel cars were fitted with a Comprex supercharger. Other users included Peugeot and Mercedes-Benz. The Greenpeace SmILE concept car uses a ''Hyprex'' pressure wave supercharger developed by the Swiss company Wenko AG.〔 NASA uses wave rotors in experiments attempting to increase gas turbine efficiency. The wave rotor is placed between the compressor, combustor, and turbine sections in order to extract more energy from the combustion process.〔(Wave Rotor Topping Cycles for Gas Turbine Engine )〕〔(Wave Rotor Technology Tested Successfully )〕 ==Principle== The process is controlled by a cylindrical cell rotor driven by the engine crankshaft via a belt or chain. Individual cells alternately open and close the exhaust gas and fresh air apertures. When the aperture on the exhaust gas side is reached, pressurized exhaust gas flows into the cell and compresses the fresh air there. As the cell rotor continues to rotate and reaches the aperture on the inlet side, the compressed air flows to the engine. Before the exhaust gas can flow, the aperture is closed again and the exhaust gas column is reflected before entering the engine. The exhaust gas exits at high speed, sucking further intake air into the cell behind it, repeating the process.
