ABB Turbocharging
VTC

Proven reliability over the years


The VTC is long-established and proven in applications where
space restrictions call for a compact turbocharger.

VTC high-performance turbochargers are designed for diesel


engines with rated outputs from 1000 up to 3200 kW per
turbocharger, where restricted space demands a compact
turbocharger.

The plain bearings are lubricated via the engines lube oil
system. No postlubrication is needed when the engine
is shut down. However, when the engine is started up, the
turbocharger, like the engine, requires prelubrication.

The aerodynamic design of the rotating components, i. e. the


turbine and compressor, of the VTC turbochargers is the
same as for the VTR . . 4, which is noted for high overall efficiency.

VTC turbochargers are particularly well suited for use on


diesel engines where compactness is needed, such as
on locomotives, in stationary power plants and on mobile
emergency gensets.

To enable a space-saving design it was decided to use separately lubricated plain bearings between the turbine and
compressor. The resulting reduction in overall length permits
a compact arrangement on the engine and free flow of the
exhaust gases to the turbine.

The VTC turbocharger has been designed to enable the rotor


to be dismantled with its bearings as a whole, without the gas
lines having to be disconnected, and to be easily removed
from the gas casing. The same applies to the nozzle ring and
the associated shroud ring. This greatly simplifies maintenance and enables all bearings and running parts to be
inspected without the gas casings having to be dismantled.

Benefits that add up


Customers and end-users can rely on the worlds premier sales
and service support network.

Major benefits
Close contact with the diesel engine industry and a wealth of field
experience enable ABB to provide expert advice on all questions
connected with turbocharging.
ABB application engineers are highly experienced specialists who can
be called in to advise on solutions to any problems. Since ABB is a totally
independent company, it can be consulted with confidence at an early
stage.
VTC turbochargers are of extremely robust design, dimensioned to last
the useful life of the engine and undemanding in operation.
High reliability is achieved through a commitment to highest
manufacturing quality and close tolerances. All spare parts can be
used without re-machining.
All VTC turbochargers are provided with water connections at the
compressor end, enabling them to be washed with water in service.
As back-up in all operational questions, ABB has a special team of
experienced engineers permanently on call.
ABBs worldwide service network ensures fast, efficient response
around the clock.

The ranges of application of the VTC turbocharger sizes


VTC 254 and 304 are largely the same as those of the corresponding sizes in the VTR range as the active components
(turbine and compressor) of the two turbochargers are identical.

For a specific application, the definitive size of turbocharger to


be chosen as well as the correct choice of turbine and compressor parts (characteristic and size of blades, cross-section
of the stationary vanes, size of compressor impeller and diffuser) is best decided in consultation with one of our application engineers.

The maximum rate of water flow shown for the gas outlet
casing assumes a gas temperature of 600 C and a cooling
water temperature of 65 C at the inlet.

Design variants

1 or 2 gas inlets radial; 1, 2 or 4 gas inlets axial

Air outlet

1 or 2 air outlets

To ensure optimum mounting of the turbocharger on the


engine, the air and gas casings are vertically split and can
be turned relative to one another. The fixing feet attached
to the gas outlet casing can also be turned to the desired
mounting position.

Air suction branch axial or radial, or filter-silencer. By using


a filter designed as a surrounding jacket, the larger dirt
particles will be extracted from the incoming air. Noise is
absorbed by felted segments which provide support for
the whole. These silencers achieve high noise reduction for
only a low pressure drop.
