Cummins has detailed the evolution and key differences between turbochargers for natural gas and diesel engines. Natural gas turbochargers have undergone significant changes over the past decade, driven by emissions regulations and the adoption of stoichiometric burning. Modern natural gas turbochargers feature distinct components including dual wastegate ports, larger actuators (T4 vs T2), and specialized housing materials to handle higher temperatures exceeding 760°C.
Unlike diesel engines that operate with a lean burn, natural gas engines require a precise 1:1 air-to-fuel ratio, resulting in smaller turbochargers. The shift to stoichiometric burning has reduced the need for complex aftertreatment systems, lowering overall engine and turbo costs while meeting strict emissions standards.
