Abstract

A control apparatus for a gas dynamic pressure-wave machine for charging combustion engines. The inflow cross-sectional area of the gas pocket in the high-pressure exhaust channel is controlled in accordance with the desired operating conditions of the engine by a bimetallic flap or valve member as a function of the temperature of the high-pressure exhaust gas.
