    摘要: A turbine assembly can include a turbine housing that defines a longitudinal axis and that includes a first scroll and a first tongue at a first angle about the longitudinal axis and a second scroll and a second tongue at a second angle about the longitudinal axis, where an angular span between the first angle and the second angle is greater than 1 degree and less than 180 degrees; and a first set of vanes and a second set of vanes disposed in the turbine housing, where a vane of the first set of vanes is aligned with the first tongue and a vane of the second set of vanes is aligned with the second tongue.

    摘要: Models that employ both measurable engine parameters as well as predictable engine parameters may be used to determine when a thermostat is malfunctioning before the thermostat malfunction results in an engine breakdown. Particular models may be used to provide an estimated coolant temperature and an estimated thermostat position. The estimated coolant temperature can be compared to an actual measured engine coolant temperature. The estimated thermostat position can be evaluated with respect to what the thermostat position should be given a particular engine coolant temperature. In some cases, comparison between a healthy model and a faulty model may be used to ascertain thermostat health.
