Abstract
A clutch control apparatus for a mechanical supercharger is used in connection with a mechanical supercharger provided in the intake passage of an engine and driven by the output shaft of the engine through a clutch. The clutch control apparatus suppresses shock during clutch engagement and increases clutch life by controlling the slipping condition of the clutch when the mechanical supercharger is engaged.
