Abstract
A pressure wave supercharger includes a cell rotor which is arranged in the housing and driven by an electric motor. The electric motor includes a rotating member which is connected to the cell rotor, and a fixed member. A bearing assembly is provided to simultaneously support the cell rotor within the housing and the rotating member in relation to the fixed member.
