"The low-temperature turbocompressor structural arrangement for an internal combustion engine" is a system for using the energy that is available but unused during operation of an internal combustion engine to cool the air supplied to said engine by supercharging, applicable to internal combustion engines of any type. The temperature of the air compressed by the compressor is reduced by a cooling system and the air is then conveyed to a further turbine actuated by the intake air flow of the engine, affording the benefits of enhancing engine performance levels, which may be used in order to obtain greater power or reduce consumption, since the denser air allows more fuel into the combustion chamber, achieving greater combustion, which increases the power-to-weight ratio, and the cooler air allows work at more aggressive compression and/or ignition advance ratios without problems of pre-ignition/pinking, thereby enhancing engine performance levels. The structural arrangement may be mounted in full or in part, and also each component may be fitted into existing systems.
