Abstract

The present invention controls the amount of air fed to the intake of a supercharged internal-combustion engine. The engine includes two exhaust gas outlets () each connected to an exhaust manifold () of a group of at least one cylinder (), a turbocharger with a dual-inlet () turbine () connected to the exhaust gas outlets, and to an outside air compressor (), and a duct () for partial transfer of the compressed air from the compressor to the turbine inlets. Two branches () of the partial transfer duct, are connected to the turbine inlets. Each branch carries proportional throttle (), and the compressed air circulation in the branches is controlled during transient operation phases according to strategies applied to the proportioned throttle valves and determined in accordance with the stabilized phase characteristics.
