A turbocharger includes an annular bypass passage with an annular bypass valve disposed therein. The bypass valve includes a fixed annular valve seat and a rotary annular valve member disposed against the valve seat. The valve member is rotatable about the axis for varying a degree of alignment between orifices in the valve seat and valve member so as to form flow passages having a flow area A for exhaust gas. The orifices are shaped to provide a first phase of evolution of the flow area A from zero up to a value A1 and then a second phase of evolution from the value A1 up to a value A2, and such that the first and second phases have distinctly different slopes on a curve of flow area versus rotational position of the valve member, with a distinct break point in the curve between the first and second phases.

1. A turbocharger comprising: a compressor wheel mounted within a compressor housing;a turbine housing defining at least part of a generally annular chamber extending circumferentially about a longitudinal axis of the turbine housing, the turbine housing defining a bore extending along the longitudinal axis;a turbine wheel disposed in the turbine housing;a nozzle passage leading from the chamber radially inwardly into the turbine wheel;the turbine housing defining an annular bypass passage surrounding the bore and arranged to allow exhaust gas in the chamber to bypass the turbine wheel; andan annular bypass valve disposed in the bypass passage, the bypass valve comprising a fixed annular valve seat and a rotary annular valve member that is disposed against the valve seat and is rotatable about the longitudinal axis, one of the valve seat and the valve member defining a non-circular first orifice extending axially therethrough and the other of the valve seat and the valve member defining a non-circular second orifice extending axially therethrough, forming an orifice pair, the first and second orifices being arranged to overlap in some rotational positions of the valve member so as to create a flow passage formed by aligned portions of the first and second orifices,wherein the first orifice is generally L-shaped having a first portion that extends primarily in a circumferential direction, a second portion that forms an obtuse angle with the first portion and extends primarily in a radial direction, and a third portion that forms an obtuse angle with the second portion and extends primarily in the radial direction, and the second orifice is generally L-shaped having a first portion that extends primarily in a circumferential direction, a second portion that forms an obtuse angle with the first portion and extends primarily in a radial direction, and a third portion that forms an obtuse angle with the second portion and extends primarily in the radial direction, wherein the three portions of the second orifice interact with the three portions of the first orifice to provide three distinct phases in a curve of flow area A versus valve member rotational position as the first and second orifices begin to overlap and then become further overlapped with further rotation of the valve member, such that the curve of flow area A exhibits a first phase of evolution of the flow area A from zero up to a value A1 and then a second phase of evolution of the flow area from the value A1 up to a value A2, followed by a third phase extending from flow area A2 up to the maximum flow area Amax and such that the first phase and the second phase have distinctly different slopes on the curve of flow area A versus rotational position of the valve member, with a distinct break point in the curve between said first and second phases, and the second phase and the third phase have distinctly different slopes on the curve of flow area A versus rotational position of the valve member, with a distinct break point in the curve between said second and third phases. 2. The turbocharger of claim 1, wherein there are a plurality of first orifices spaced apart in a circumferential direction of the bypass valve and a like plurality of second orifices spaced apart in the circumferential direction, forming a plurality of orifice pairs each configured to have said first, second, and third phases of evolution of the flow area. 3. The turbocharger of claim 2, wherein at least one of the first orifices has a different shape from other ones of the first orifices, and correspondingly at least one of the second orifices has a different shape from other ones of the second orifices, the/each differently shaped first orifice forming an orifice pair with the/each differently shaped second orifice. 4. An annular bypass valve for a turbine, comprising a fixed annular valve seat and a rotary annular valve member that is disposed against the valve seat and rotatable about a longitudinal axis, one of the valve seat and the valve member defining a non-circular first orifice extending axially therethrough and the other of the valve seat and the valve member defining a non-circular second orifice extending axially therethrough, forming an orifice pair, the first and second orifices being arranged to overlap in some rotational positions of the valve member so as to create a flow passage formed by aligned portions of the first and second orifices, wherein the first orifice is generally L-shaped having a first portion that extends primarily in a circumferential direction, a second portion that forms an obtuse angle with the first portion and extends primarily in a radial direction, and a third portion that forms an obtuse angle with the second portion and extends primarily in the radial direction, and the second orifice is generally L-shaped having a first portion that extends primarily in a circumferential direction, a second portion that forms an obtuse angle with the first portion and extends primarily in a radial direction, and a third portion that forms an obtuse angle with the second portion and extends primarily in the radial direction, wherein the three portions of the second orifice interact with the three portions of the first orifice to provide three distinct phases in a curve of flow area A versus valve member rotational position as the first and second orifices begin to overlap and then become further overlapped with further rotation of the valve member, such that the curve of flow area A exhibits a first phase of evolution of the flow area A from zero up to a value A1 and then a second phase of evolution of the flow area from the value A1 up to a value A2, followed by a third phase extending from flow area A2 up to the maximum flow area Amax and such that the first phase and the second phase have distinctly different slopes on the curve of flow area A versus rotational position of the valve member, with a distinct break point in the curve between said first and second phases, and the second phase and the third phase have distinctly different slopes on the curve of flow area A versus rotational position of the valve member, with a distinct break point in the curve between said second and third phases. 5. The annular bypass valve of claim 4, wherein there are a plurality of first orifices spaced apart in a circumferential direction of the bypass valve and a like plurality of second orifices spaced apart in the circumferential direction, forming a plurality of orifice pairs each configured to have said first, second, and third phases of evolution of the flow area. 6. The annular bypass valve of claim 5, wherein at least one of the first orifices has a different shape from other ones of the first orifices, and correspondingly at least one of the second orifices has a different shape from other ones of the second orifices, the/each differently shaped first orifice forming an orifice pair with the/each differently shaped second orifice.
