Abstract
An exhaust system for a supercharged internal-combustion engine in which of the exhaust-gas-carrying components, the exhaust gas pipes leading from the cylinder outlets to the turbines, or the turbines, or the turbines and the exhaust gas pipes are arranged jointly in an exhaust-gas-tight housing. Openings in the exhaust-gas-carrying components cause the space formed between the exhaust-gas-carrying components and the housing to be filled with exhaust gas. By way of a bypass pipe which is connected with the space and leads to the turbine, exhaust gas can be blown off from the space. A blow-off valve is arranged in the bypass pipe.
