<p>A <b>turbo-compound engine</b> is a <a href="Reciprocating_engine" title="Reciprocating engine">reciprocating engine</a> that employs a <a href="Turbine" title="Turbine">turbine</a> to recover energy from the exhaust gases. Instead of using that energy to drive a <a href="Turbocharger" title="Turbocharger">turbocharger</a> as found in many high-power <a href="Aircraft_engine" title="Aircraft engine">aircraft engines</a>, the energy is instead sent to the output shaft to increase the total power delivered by the engine. The turbine is usually mechanically connected to the <a href="Crankshaft" title="Crankshaft">crankshaft</a>, as on the <a href="Wright_R-3350_Duplex-Cyclone" title="Wright R-3350 Duplex-Cyclone">Wright R-3350 Duplex-Cyclone</a>, but electric and hydraulic power recovery systems have been investigated as well.
</p><p>As this recovery process does not increase <a href="Fuel_consumption" class="mw-redirect" title="Fuel consumption">fuel consumption</a>, it has the effect of reducing the <a href="Specific_fuel_consumption_(shaft_engine)" class="mw-redirect" title="Specific fuel consumption (shaft engine)">specific fuel consumption</a>, the ratio of fuel use to power.<sup id="cite_ref-popmech0256_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-popmech0256-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Turbo-compounding was used for commercial airliners and similar long-range, long-endurance roles before the introduction of <a href="Turbojet" title="Turbojet">turbojet</a> engines. Examples using the Duplex-Cyclone include the <a href="Douglas_DC-7B" class="mw-redirect" title="Douglas DC-7B">Douglas DC-7B</a> and <a href="Lockheed_L-1049_Super_Constellation" title="Lockheed L-1049 Super Constellation">Lockheed L-1049 Super Constellation</a>, while other designs did not see production use.

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Concept">Concept</h2></div>
<p>Most piston engines produce a hot exhaust that still contains considerable undeveloped <a href="Energy" title="Energy">energy</a> that could be used for propulsion if extracted. A turbine is often used to extract energy from such a stream of gases. A conventional gas turbine is fed high-pressure, high-velocity air, extracts energy from it, and leaves as a lower-pressure, slower-moving stream. This action has the side-effect of increasing the upstream pressure, which makes it undesirable for use with a piston engine as it increases the back-pressure in the engine, which decreases scavenging of the <a href="Exhaust_gas" title="Exhaust gas">exhaust gas</a> from the cylinders and thereby lowers the efficiency of the piston portion of a compound engine.<sup id="cite_ref-EH_2-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-EH-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>Through the late 1930s and early 1940s one solution to this problem was the introduction of "jet stack" exhaust manifolds. These were simply short sections of metal pipe attached to the exhaust ports, shaped so that they would produce a jet of air that produced forward thrust. Another <a href="World_War_II" title="World War II">World War II</a> introduction was the use of the <a href="Meredith_effect" title="Meredith effect">Meredith effect</a> to recover heat from the radiator system to provide additional thrust.
</p><p>By the late-war era, turbine development had improved dramatically and led to a new turbine design known as the "blowdown turbine" or "power-recovery turbine". This design extracts energy from the momentum of the moving exhaust, but does not appreciably increase back-pressure. This means it does not have the undesirable effects of conventional designs when connected to the exhaust of a piston engine, and a number of manufacturers began studying the design.
</p>
<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2></div>

<p>The first aircraft engine to be tested with a power-recovery turbine was the <a href="Rolls-Royce_Crecy" title="Rolls-Royce Crecy">Rolls-Royce Crecy</a>. This was used primarily to drive a geared centrifugal supercharger, although it was also coupled to the crankshaft and gave an extra 15 to 35 percent fuel economy.<sup id="cite_ref-nzrrbc_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-nzrrbc-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>Blowdown turbines became relatively common features in the late- and post-war era, especially for engines designed for long overwater flights. Turbo-compounding was used on several <a href="Airplane" title="Airplane">airplane</a> engines after <a href="World_War_II" title="World War II">World War II</a>, including the <a href="Napier_Nomad" title="Napier Nomad">Napier Nomad</a><sup id="cite_ref-Flight,_30_April_1954,_Napier_Nomad_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Flight,_30_April_1954,_Napier_Nomad-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-Flight,_30_April_1954,_Napier_diesels_5-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Flight,_30_April_1954,_Napier_diesels-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and the <a href="Wright_R-3350_Duplex-Cyclone" title="Wright R-3350 Duplex-Cyclone">Wright R-3350</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-Flight,_2003,_Ten_ideas_that_failed_6-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Flight,_2003,_Ten_ideas_that_failed-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-Flight,_1997,_Super_survivor_7-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Flight,_1997,_Super_survivor-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The exhaust restriction imparted by the three blowdown turbines used on the Wright R-3350 is equal to a well-designed jet stack system used on a conventional <a href="Radial_engine" title="Radial engine">radial engine</a>, while recovering about 550&nbsp;hp (410&nbsp;kW) at METO (maximum continuous except for take-off) power.<sup id="cite_ref-EH_2-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-EH-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In the case of the R-3350, maintenance crews sometimes nicknamed the turbine the <i>parts recovery turbine</i> due to its negative effect on engine reliability. Turbo-compound versions of the <a href="Napier_Deltic" title="Napier Deltic">Napier Deltic</a>, <a href="Rolls-Royce_Crecy" title="Rolls-Royce Crecy">Rolls-Royce Crecy</a>, <a href="Rolls-Royce_Griffon" title="Rolls-Royce Griffon">Rolls-Royce Griffon</a>, and <a href="Allison_V-1710" title="Allison V-1710">Allison V-1710</a> were constructed but none was developed beyond the prototype stage. It was realized in many cases the power produced by the simple turbine was approaching that of the enormously complex and maintenance-intensive piston engine to which it was attached. As a result, turbo-compound aero engines were soon supplanted by <a href="Turboprop" title="Turboprop">turboprop</a> and <a href="Turbojet" title="Turbojet">turbojet</a> engines.
</p><p>Some modern heavy truck diesel manufacturers have incorporated turbo-compounding into their designs. Examples include the <a href="Volvo" title="Volvo">Volvo</a> <a href="Volvo_D13" title="Volvo D13">D13TC</a> engine, the <a href="Detroit_Diesel" title="Detroit Diesel">Detroit Diesel</a> DD15<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> and <a href="Scania_AB" title="Scania AB">Scania</a><sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> in production from 1991.<sup id="cite_ref-11" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
</p><p>Starting with the 2014 season, <a href="Formula_One" title="Formula One">Formula One</a> switched to a new 1.6 liter turbocharged V6 <a href="Formula_One_engines#2014–2021" title="Formula One engines">formula</a> that uses turbo-compounding. The engines use a single turbocharger that is connected to an electric motor/generator called the MGU-H. The MGU-H uses a turbine to drive a generator, converting waste heat from the exhaust into electrical energy that is either stored in a battery, sent directly to an electric motor in the car's powertrain, and/or to spin up the turbine faster in low-rpm conditions to avoid turbo lag.
