Abstract
The functional constructive variants of the Hyprex and Comprex compressors with pressure wave built until the present are reduced in number. Starting from this ascertainment, the paper proposes to highlight the optimization on joint functioning of existing pressure wave supercharger models with internal combustion engines. This is possible due to the efficiency of the supercharging process, realized with such superchargers, which depends on the correlation grade between the rotational speed of the supercharger and the pressure of the exhaust gasses that enter in the compressor's channels, reason due to, a single supercharger model can be capable to supercharge efficiently engines with different characteristics, if the optimal values for the driving speed of the pressure wave supercharger are identified (according to the method proposed in the work) and adapted (according the level of energetic and/or ecologic performances that the engine should achieve) for each type of engine apart.
