The diagram shows the position of the low-pressure (Power2 LP) and high-pressure stage
(Power2 HP) within two-stage turbocharging (Power2). The low-pressure stage is always op-
erated in combination with a high-pressure stage connected in series. The two-stage turbo-
charging (Power2) supplies the engine with the air volume and associated charging pressure
required for operation.
Here, the exhaust gases of the internal combustion engine flow through the turbine (22) of the
high-pressure stage and then to the turbine (24) of the low-pressure stage. The compressor
(25) of the low-pressure stage sucks in fresh air or the air/gas mixture, respectively. This pre-
compressed air or air/gas mixture flows through the intercooler (26) into the compressor (21)
of the high-pressure stage. Here the air or air/gas mixture is compressed further and leaves
the two-stage turbocharging (Power2) in the direction of the charge air cooler.
