TURBOCHARGER BOOST CONTROL : System Description


INPUT/OUTPUT SIGNAL CHART







SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

Depending on driving conditions, the ECM performs ON/OFF duty control of the turbocharger boost control solenoid valve and controls the boost by adjusting the pressure to the diaphragm of the boost control actuator.
When driving conditions demand an increase in boost, the ECM prolongs the ON time of the turbocharger boost control solenoid valve and moves the boost control valve towards the closing direction by reducing the pressure in the diaphragm of the boost control actuator. The emission gas to the turbine wheel is then increased. When driving conditions demand a decrease in boost, the ECM shortens the ON time of the turbocharger boost control solenoid valve and moves the boost control valve towards the opening position by increasing the pressure in the diaphragm of the boost control actuator. The emission bypassing to the turbine wheel is then increased. Thus, by performing the most optimal boost control, the ECM improves engine output and response.
NOTE:
The boost varies depending on the vehicle and driving conditions.
