An engine system may include: an engine including a plurality of combustion chambers generating driving torque by burning fuel; an intake line through which fresh air flows into the combustion chambers; an intake manifold for distributing fresh air supplied by the intake line to the combustion chambers; an exhaust line in which exhaust gas exhausted from the combustion chambers flows; a recirculation line branched from the exhaust line and joined to the intake line; a connection pipe disposed at a portion where the recirculation line and the intake line are joined; and a water line connecting the connection pipe and the intake manifold. Condensate water generated at the connection pipe flows in the water line.

Methods and systems are provided for adjusting and diagnosing one or more canister purge valves in a fuel vapor recovery system. In one example, a method may include adjusting one or more canister purge valves in a passage coupled to a fuel vapor canister of the fuel vapor recovery system to allow flow between an intake passage and an intake manifold of the engine based on engine operating conditions. Further, the method may include indicating the one or more canister purge valves are degraded and based on a change in air-fuel ratio after adjusting the one or more canister purge valves.

The present invention relates to an exhaust treatment apparatus (1) for an internal combustion engine (5). The apparatus includes a catalyst chamber (15) containing a catalyst (35). One or more exhaust gas inlets (11 A-D) are provided for supplying exhaust gases from the internal combustion engine (5) to the catalyst chamber (C). An exhaust gas outlet (21) for supplying exhaust gases from the catalyst chamber to a turbocharger (25). An injection nozzle (19) is provided for introducing a reductant (23) into the exhaust gases between the catalyst (15) and the turbocharger (25). The reductant (23) and the exhaust gases can undergo mixing as they pass through the turbocharger (25). The catalyst (15) can have a three-dimensional open structure to facilitate the flow of exhaust gases. The invention also relates to a method of treating exhaust gases from an internal combustion engine (5).

Aircraft power plants including combustion engines, and associated methods for recuperating waste heat from such aircraft power plants are described. A method includes transferring the heat rejected by the internal combustion engine to supercritical CO.sub.2 (sCO.sub.2) used as a working fluid in a heat engine. The heat engine converts at least some the heat transferred to the sCO.sub.2 to mechanical energy to perform useful work onboard the aircraft.

A turbocharger flange includes a mounting face for attaching a turbocharger to a manifold, wherein the mounting face includes a guiding structure for guiding the flange to an operative position in relation to the manifold.

Disclosed is a combustion engine and method for engine braking therein including an intake air channel having a first pressure, a first inlet valve between the intake air channel and the cylinder volume, an exhaust air channel having a second pressure, a first outlet valve between the cylinder volume and the exhaust air channel, and a storage reservoir having a third pressure higher than the first and second pressures, the storage reservoir being arranged in controllable fluid communication with the cylinder volume. The method takes place during two-stroke cycle and includes: displacing the piston from upper dead centre (UDC) towards lower dead centre (LDC), keeping the first inlet valve open during at least part of the travel from UDC to LDC, displacing the piston from LDC towards UDC, and keeping the fluid communication between the storage reservoir and cylinder volume open during at least a part of such travel.
