Abstract
Methods for protecting turbochargers of engine systems include determining a speed gradient of the turbocharger and implementing a turbocharger speed protection action if the determined speed gradient is above a speed gradient threshold. Implementing a protection action comprises limiting engine torque, engine speed, vehicle speed, and/or fuel injection to the engine. The method can further include determining a cold start condition prior to determining the speed gradient of the turbocharger. A cold start condition can be determined based on ambient temperature, engine oil temperature, or engine coolant temperature. The method can further include, subsequent to implementing the turbocharger speed protection action, disabling the turbocharger speed protection action when a subsequently determined turbocharger speed gradient is below the speed gradient threshold. Systems for implementing the methods are also disclosed.
