Abstract
A turbocharger system includes a compressor that is connected with a turbine operated by an exhaust gas by a rotary shaft and compresses and supplies external gas to a combustion chamber of an engine, an intercooler and a throttle valve disposed in an intake line connecting the compressor with the combustion chamber of the engine, a branch line connecting an intake line between the compressor and the intercooler with an intake line between the intercooler and the throttle valve, a shutoff valve disposed in the branch line to selectively open/close the branch line, and an engine control unit controlling the operation of the shutoff valve.
