Abstract:
1. An engine system, comprising: a control system comprising a processor, a memory, an algorithm stored in the memory, and control electronics; a supercharger comprising an air inlet, an air outlet, a rotatable drive shaft, and rotors associated with the drive shaft, and the supercharger is sized relative to a combustion engine to have a flow rate that substantially prevents backwards leaking of air flow; the combustion engine connected to receive air flow expelled from the supercharger, the combustion engine comprising combustion chambers and an associated rotatable crank shaft, the combustion engine having an operating range from an idled condition up to a maximum rotations per minute (RPM); and a continuously variable transmission (CVT) connected to the control system and comprising parts to variably transfer rotational energy between the drive shaft and the crank shaft across the entire operating range of the combustion engine.
