TURBOCHARGER (1910 JTD 110 CV)
The turbocharger used in the application of the
EURO 3 standards in the variable geometry
type connected to the exhaust manifold.
The turbocharger is controlled by the engine
management control unit via a duty-cycle so
lenoid valve.
The increased volumetric output for the engine
is achieved, in the case of variable geometry
compressors, through the use of:
- a centrifugal compressor (1)
- a turbine (2)
- a series of moving vanes (3)
- a pneumatic actuator (4) controlling the
moving vanes.
- asolenoid valve (5) controlling the actuator
The variable geometry turbocharger makes it
possible to:
- increase the speed of the exhaust gases in
the turbine at low engine speeds
- slow down the speed of the exhaust gases
in the turbine at high speeds.
The control of the speed (kinetic energy) of
the exhaust gases makes it possible to pro
duce increased engine torque at low speeds
and greater maximum power at high speeds.
Operation at low rotation speeds
When the engine is operating at low speeds,
the exhaust gases possses little kinetic energy:
under these circumstances a conventional tur
bine would rotate slowly, supplying a limited
supercharging pressure.
On the other hand, in the variable geometry
turbine (1), the moving vanes are in the
maximum closure position and the small pas
sage sections between the vanes increase the
speed (C) of the intake gases.
Increased intake speeds lead to increased pe
ripheral speeds (U) of the turbine and, conse
quently, the compressor.
The speed of the gases inside the impeller is
indicated by the vector (W).

Operation at high rotation speeds
When the engine speed is increased, the ki
netic energy of the exhaust gases increases
gradually.
As a result, the speed of the turbine (5) in
creases and consequently the supercharging
pressure.
The VGT solenoid valve (2) operated by the
injection control unit (1), through the actuator
(4) causes the moving vanes to change posi
tion until the maximum opening position is
reached.

5. Turbine
There is therefore an increase in the passage
sections and consequently a slowing down in
the flow of exhaust gases which pass through
the turbine (1) at the same speed or slower
than the low speed conditions.
The speed of the turbine (1) decreases and
settles down at a suitable vaule for the correct
operation of the engine at high speeds.

TURBOCHARGER (1910 JTD 100 CV)
It basically consists of two impellers (1) on
one shaft (2) which rotates on floating bear
ings lubricated by a duct (3) from the engine
lubrication circuit.
The oil used dissipates some of the large
amount of heat given off by the exhaust gases
at the turbine.
There is a waste gate valve (4) fitted on the
turbocharger, operated by a pneumatic actua
tor (5), that makes it possible to shutter the
flow of exhaust gases to the turbine, accord
ing to the engine power/torque requirements.
The pneumatic actuator is controlled by the en
gine management control unit via a solenoid
valve.
* The turbocharger used on the 1910 JTD 100 CV version is the fixed geometry type.

EMISSION CONTROL DEVICES
The car is equipped with devices designed to reduce polluting emissions in accordance with Euro 3
reguirements:
- Oxidising catalytic converter (1)
- Exhaust gas recirculation circuit (EGR) (2)
- Crankcase blow-by vapour recirculation circuit (3).
4F027XJ01
OXIDISING CATALYTIC CONVERTER
The oxidising catalytic converter is a post-
treatment device used to oxidise CO, HC and
particulate and convert them to carbon dioxide
(C02) and water vapour (H20).
The catalytic converter consists of a ceramic
honeycomb case (1) with its chambers im
pregnated with platinum, a substance that
catalyses oxidation reactions.
Exhaust gases flow through the chambers and
heat the catalytic converter where they trigger
the conversion of pollutants to inert com
pounds.
The chemical reaction involved in oxidising
the CO, HC and particulate is effective at tem
peratures between 200 °C and 350 °C.
Above 350 °C, the sulphur in the diesel begins
to oxidise to produce sulphur dioxide and sul
phuric acid.
EXHAUST GAS RECIRCULATION CIRCUIT (EGR)
This system sends a proportion of exhaust gases to the intake under certain engine service conditions.
This dilutes the fuel mixture with inert gsaes to lower.peak temperature in the combustion chamber; This
helps limit the formation of nitrogen oxides (NOx) and reduces exhaust levels by 30-50%.

The EGR valve consists of:
- a Pierburg EGR solenoid (1) operated by engine management unit (2)
- a pipe from the exhaust manifold (4) (from which the exhaust gases flow)
- an air-water heat exchanger (3) (that lowers exhaust gas temperature)
- a pipe connected to throttle body (5) to which exhaust gases are admitted
4
Operation
With coolant temperature > 20°C and engine speeds between 800 and 3000 rpm, the engine management
unit controls the EGR solenoid by means of a square wave signal.
Changes in this signal allow the EGR coil to move a plunger and thus modulate the flow of exhaust gas
from the exhaust manifold to the intake manifold; this achieves two results:
- less air is taken in
- combustion temperature is lowered (due to the presence of inert gases), thus reducing the formation of
NOx (nitrogen oxides).
The engine management control unit is constantly informed of recirculation gas quantity via data from the
debimeter. If the intake of a given quantity of air (Qam) is required for a given rpm and the level sent by
the debimeter (Qar) is lower, the difference (Qgr) is the amount of gas recirculated.
Qam - Qar = Qgr
Qam = stored theoretical air quantity
Qar = actual air quantity
Qgr = recirculated gas quantity
An atmospheric pressure signal is used in controlling the EGR valve to detect when the car is being driven at
altitude. The recirculation gas quantity can then be reduced to prevent engine fumes.

RECIRCULATION CIRCUIT FOR CRANK-
CASE VAPOURS (BLOW-BY)
The control of the oil vapour emissions is
achieved through a separator (1) (function
carried out by the tappet cover) which collects
the vapours released by the crankcase in the
pipe (2).
The difference in temperature between the
separator and the oil vapours causes partial
condensation.
The vapours which have not condensed are
sent, via the pipe (3), to the turbocharger air
intake hose.
The adjustment valve, consisting of a spring
(1) and a diaphragm (2), on the tappet cover
makes it possible to prevent intake.
When the vacuum values inside the tappet
cover exceed a pre-set limit, the diaphragm
moves downwards sealing the duct from the
crankcase.
