Abstract: With the widespread application of pulse turbochargers in internal combustion engines, steady or quasi-steady turbine models are no longer qualified for on-engine turbine performance prediction. Pulsatile flow condition caused by the reciprocating nature of the engine results in strong unsteadiness across the turbocharger turbine, which makes the turbine performance departing from that under steady or quasi-steady conditions. Modelling turbocharger turbine through a one-dimensional (1D) method is an important approach to simulate the unsteady performance of the turbine.
