Abstract:
A boost system for providing boost pressure to an air intake manifold of an engine includes a supercharger having rotors and a supercharger input shaft, an electric motor/generator, and a planetary gear set. The planetary gear set operates to transfer torque between the supercharger input shaft, the electric motor/generator and a crankshaft of the engine. The boost system can have a compact configuration.
