Abstract (en)
[origin: US4763471A] An exhaust plenum chamber for a supercharged engine having a variable volume. A mechanical spring is arranged to an exhaust plenum chamber to increase the spring action of the plenum chamber volume. In this connection, the plenum chamber interior is divided into a flow chamber and a dead volume. The efficiency especially of relatively small plenum chambers in internal combustion engines with a small number of cylinders and/or slight supercharging is improved.
