AIR FLOW HEATER ASSIST BY E-TURBO

It is aimed to provide an internal combustion engine (10) comprising: an exhaust line (13) configured to receive exhaust gas from the internal combustion engine (10). An intake line (12) is configured to supply pressurized air from an air intake to the internal combustion engine. A heater (20) is disposed adjacent the exhaust line (13) to generate heat that is transported via the exhaust line to an exhaust aftertreatment system (30). A bypass line (11) controllably connects the intake line to the exhaust line to bypass the engine An electric flow generator (40) is arranged in the intake line and/or bypass line between the air intake and the inlet opening to supply intake air to the exhaust line; and a control system is arranged to selectively control the bypass line (11) to provide pressurized intake air from the electric flow generator, via the inlet opening (17) to supply intake air to the exhaust line for transporting heat generated by the heater towards the aftertreatment system.

Engine

An engine including an exhaust bypass valve and an intake bypass valve. The exhaust bypass valve is disposed in an exhaust bypass channel connecting an outlet of an exhaust manifold and an exhaust outlet of a turbocharger to each other. The intake bypass valve is disposed in an intake bypass channel connecting an inlet of an intake manifold and an inlet of the turbocharger. An intake pressure sensor detects a pressure of the intake manifold. If an instruction value indicating an upper limit or a lower limit of the valve opening degree of the intake bypass valve is continuously output for a predetermined time or more, an engine control device determines that an abnormality occurs in at least one of the exhaust bypass valve and the intake bypass valve.
