Our TECHNOLOGY
Bowman’s TorqIQ™ technology brings together a unique blend of capabilities and expertise to intelligently apply torque management by integrating high-speed electrical machines (HSEMs) and power electronics in turbochargers (or separate compressors and turbines) to create smart digital eTurbo Systems Bowman technology can make engines dance!
This intelligent electrification enables retention (or even simplification) of the conventional base architecture of reciprocating engines, while improving system energy efficiency.
Coupled with digital expertise, TorqIQ™ technology brings a new degree of freedom to engine control strategies which will enable cleaner use of today’s fuels, as well as a transition path to future carbon-free fuels.
Bowman’s eTurbo Systems, powered by TorqIQ™ technology, can also be used to improve the performance and efficiency of fuel cells.
Powered by TorqIQ™ technology, Bowman’s eTurbo Systems offer new machine speed and power possibilities for instantaneous response and optimisation
