Abstract
This disclosure relates to a turbocharged low compression ratio diesel engine. An air by-pass is connected in parallel with the engine and is operable to by-pass a portion of the compressor output around the engine and into the exhaust manifold. A control is connected in the by-pass to regulate the amount of by-passed air, the control operating in response to the compressor output. The by-pass further includes means for heating the air flowing to the turbine to aid fuel combustion in the engine cylinders.
