Abstract
A system can include a turbine housing that defines a turbine wheel space, an exhaust chamber in fluid communication with the turbine wheel space and a control shaft bore that extends from the exhaust chamber to an outer surface of the turbine housing; a blunt body positionable above the turbine wheel space where the blunt body includes an opening and a lumen in fluid communication with the opening; and a suction conduit connectable for fluid communication between the control shaft bore of the turbine housing and the lumen of the blunt body. Various other examples of devices, assemblies, systems, and methods are also disclosed.
