An outboard motor includes an engine, a supercharger that compresses air to be supplied to an air intake of the engine, and a cooler that cools the air compressed by the supercharger. The compressed air is cooled by spraying water obtained by condensing water vapor produced by combustion in the engine to the cooler.

A system and method for removing condensate water of an intercooler for a hybrid vehicle are configured to improve combustion efficiency of an engine by supercharging intake air to a combustion chamber of the engine using an electronic compressor instead of an existing turbocharger and configured to backward drive the electronic compressor to distribute and capture the condensate water generated in the intercooler, especially, when the engine is turned off.

An air induction system for a vehicle includes a turbocharger having a compressor side inlet and a bifurcated clean air intake system having a bifurcated conduit. The bifurcated conduit includes an upstream end configured to receive intake air, a downstream end configured to supply intake air to the compressor side inlet, an inner passage configured to supply intake air to the downstream end, and an outer passage disposed about the inner passage and separated from the inner passage by an inner wall, the outer passage configured to selectively receive recirculation backflow from the compressor side inlet. A port is fluidly coupled between the outer passage and another location of the vehicle. The port is configured to selectively evacuate at least a portion of the recirculation backflow to the another location the vehicle.

A cooling module has a heat generating body, a heat exchanger made of metal, and an insulating plate. The heat generating body has a heat dissipating surface. The heat exchanger has cooling surface facing the heat dissipating surface. The insulating plate has a first surface and a second surface. The insulating plate is interposed between the heat dissipating surface and the cooling surface on a condition that the insulating plate faces the heat dissipating surface and that the second surface faces the cooling surface. The insulating plate and the cooling surface are joined to be one body by a joining material. The heat dissipating surface and the insulating plate are in close contact with each other through an elastic member. The heat dissipating surface and the cooling surface are thermally connected to each other through the joining material, the insulating plate, and the elastic member.

An apparatus for retrieving exhaust heat of an engine, may include the engine including a plurality of combustion chambers, an intake line, an exhaust line, a turbocharger including, a turbine provided on the exhaust line, and a compressor provided on the intake line and compressing external air, an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) apparatus including an EGR line branched from the exhaust line at a rear end of the turbocharger and merged with the intake line, an EGR cooler disposed on the EGR line, and an EGR valve to adjust an amount of re-circulated exhaust gas, an intercooler to cool the intake gas introduced through the intake line, an intercooler cooling line passing through a radiator and the intercooler, an EGR cooling line passing through the radiator and the EGR cooler, an EGR exhaust line, and an exhaust adjusting valve disposed on the EGR exhaust line.

The present disclosure provides an engine system of a vehicle including an engine having combustion chambers for generating driving torque by burning fuel; an intake line in which fresh air flowing into the combustion chambers flows; an exhaust line in which exhaust gas exhausted from the combustion chambers flows; a recirculation line connecting the exhaust line and the intake line; a turbocharger including a turbine disposed at the exhaust line and rotated by the exhaust gas from the combustion chambers, and a compressor disposed at the intake line and rotated together with the turbine and compressing fresh air; an exhaust gas recirculation valve disposed at the connection of the recirculation line and the intake line to adjust an exhaust gas recirculation gas amount supplied to the intake line through the recirculation line; and a remaining gas elimination apparatus for supplying gas remaining in the intake line to the recirculation line.

Examples of the present disclosure describe systems and methods for determining a state of an air diverter valve of an air induction system of a vehicle. The determined state of the air diverter valve may be based on an intercooler-based estimated ambient air temperature and a comparison between an ambient air temperature sensor value and a pre-compressor sensor value.
