Abstract:
A combination structure of an Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) cooler may include a housing open at both sides thereof, a plurality of headers inserted in both of the sides of the housing and having a circumference forming a layer with the housing, and a plurality of diffusers each including a coupling portion, which is inserted in the headers to form a layer with the housing and the headers, at a first side and having a hole for receiving and discharging exhaust gas at a second side, in which sides of the housing and the headers may be welded, and the housing, the circumference of the headers, and coupling portions of the diffusers may be welded.
Abstract:
An engine system for a machine is disclosed. The engine system may have an intake manifold configured to direct air into a donor cylinder and a non-donor cylinder of an engine. The engine system may also have a first exhaust manifold configured to direct exhaust from the non-donor cylinder to the atmosphere. The engine system may also have a second exhaust manifold configured to receive exhaust from the donor cylinder. The engine system may further have a control valve configured to selectively direct a first amount of exhaust from the second exhaust manifold to the intake manifold. In addition, the engine system may have an orifice configured to allow a second amount of exhaust to flow from the second exhaust manifold to the first exhaust manifold.

Abstract:
An arrangement for recirculation of exhaust gases of a supercharged combustion engine includes a return line for recirculating exhaust gases, an air-cooled EGR cooler and a bypass line having an extent such that it can lead recirculating exhaust gases past the EGR cooler. A valve is operable to be placed in a first position to lead the whole flow of recirculating exhaust gases through the EGR cooler during situations where there is no risk of ice formation in the EGR cooler, and in a second position to lead the whole flow of recirculating exhaust gases through the bypass line during situations where there is risk of ice formation in the EGR cooler.
Abstract:
A method for operating an internal combustion engine configured to operate lean of stoichiometry includes reducing temperature of a portion of an exhaust gas feedstream recirculated to an intake system of the engine, and reducing mass flowrate of particulate matter and hydrocarbons borne in the recirculated portion of the exhaust gas feedstream upstream of the heat exchanger effective to reduce deposition of particulate matter and hydrocarbons onto and adhesion to surface areas of the heat exchanger.

Abstract:
In an exhaust gas heat exchanger for a system where a compressing means is located upstream of an internal combustion engine, and a part of exhaust gas from the internal combustion engine flows into the intake gas at a merge part located upstream of the compressing means, the exhaust gas heat exchanger includes a heat exchanging member. The heat exchanging member is provided adjacently to the merge part, and exchanges heat between the intake gas and the part of the exhaust gas such that the part of the exhaust gas is cooled by the intake gas.
Abstract:
A system for cooling charge air from a turbo- or supercharger and exhaust gas recirculated from an exhaust gas recirculation valve in an internal combustion engine. The system includes a radiator and parallel charge air and exhaust gas heat exchanger units, the charge air heat exchanger unit having aluminum tubes and fins for air cooling the charge air, and the exhaust gas heat exchanger unit having stainless steel tubes and fins. The charge air heat exchanger and the exhaust gas heat exchanger units are each disposed adjacent the radiator, on the same or opposite sides. Alternatively, there is provided a pair of combined charge air cooler and exhaust gas cooler heat exchanger units, with a first heat exchanger unit having stainless steel tubes and fins, and a second heat exchanger unit having aluminum tubes and fins. The heat exchanger units are disposed on opposites sides of the radiator.

Abstract:
A cooler arrangement comprising a charge air cooler which comprises at least one first pipeline for guiding compressed air during cooling and a tank which receives the cooled compressed air via an outlet aperture from the first pipeline, and an EGR cooler which comprises at least one second pipeline for guiding exhaust gases during cooling and a tank which receives the cooled exhaust gases from an outlet aperture of the second pipeline. The cooler arrangement comprises a tubular element extending from the EGR cooler's tank to the charge air cooler's tank. The tubular element has an outlet aperture for exhaust gases which is situated downstream of the most downstream outlet aperture in the charge air cooler's tank with respect to the main direction of flow of the air in the tank.
