A bilayler metamaterial silencer allows substantial fluid through the apparatus, while mitigating the propagation of sound through the apparatus, and while providing a form factor that is significantly more compact than previously-known devices. Moreover, illustrative embodiments allow a designer to specify one or both of the frequency or frequencies at which the apparatus mitigates sound propagation, and/or the bandwidth around the frequency or frequencies at which the apparatus mitigates sound propagation.

Mixer box for mixing, vaporization and decomposition of a liquid additive to the exhaust gas flow from a combustion engine, comprising a gas inlet (108), a gas outlet (109) and internal duct means establishing a gas flow path (A-H, a-h) from the gas inlet (108) to the gas outlet (109). The duct means includes a first duct portion (107) having an outer wall (171) and an inner wall (161), which is surrounded by the outer wall (171), such that the gas flow path through said first duct portion (107) is established inbetween. The first duct portion (107) is provided with at least two partitions (121-124) extending between the outer wall (171) and the inner wall (161), which separate the first duct portion (107) into at least two duct sections (101a, 101b, 102a, 102b) of which at least one is an upstream duct section (101a, 101b) and at least one is a downstream duct section (102a, 102b).

A car having: two front wheels; two rear drive wheels; a passenger compartment which is arranged between the two front wheels and the two rear wheels; a body delimiting the passenger compartment and having two sidewalls wherein at least two doors are obtained; a bottom forming the lowest part of the car and in use facing a road surface on which the car moves; an internal combustion engine which is provided with a plurality of cylinders within which respective pistons slide and with a drive shaft connected to the pistons; and at least one exhaust duct which originates from the cylinders and ends in a silencer provided with at least one outlet opening. The outlet opening of the silencer is arranged in an asymmetrical manner on only one side of the car and is located between a rear wheel and a door.

A method of controlling exhaust gas delivery between two turbochargers is disclosed. Exhaust gas is delivered to a first turbocharger through a first exhaust conduit. A valve is opened to allow at least some of the exhaust gas from the first exhaust conduit to bypass the first turbocharger through a second exhaust conduit delivering bypassing exhaust gas to a second turbocharger when the first turbocharger reaches a predefined operating speed or when the manifold pressure upstream of the first turbocharger reaches a predefined pressure.
