Engines and engine systems for managing blow-by gas and/or moisture therein, and methods of operating the same are disclosed. The engine systems may include an air intake system including a compressor such as a turbocharge and a charge air cooler. The engine system may also include an engine such as combustion engine have a crankcase. During combustion blow-by gas may be captured in the crankcase and recirculated back to the air intake system. The blow-by gas may be diluted by additional air such as fresh air prior to being recirculated. The system may also include a pump to facilitate recirculation.

A cooling system for a motor vehicle may include a first circuit, a second circuit, a first heat exchanger incorporated in the first circuit, and a second heat exchanger incorporated in the second circuit. The first heat exchanger and the second heat exchanger may be flowed through by ambient air and a coolant. The first heat exchanger may be arranged, relative to an airflow direction, in front of and directly adjacent to the second heat exchanger. The first circuit and the second circuit may be fluidically connected to one another at an upstream distribution point and at a downstream collection point such that a part mass flow of the coolant is flowable from the second circuit into the first circuit at the distribution point, from the first circuit into the first heat exchanger, and out of the first heat exchanger back into the second circuit at the collection point.

An intake system of an engine mounted on a vehicle where a cabin is air-conditioned by an air conditioner, is provided. A heat exchanger of an evaporator of the air conditioner is divided into a first heat exchanger and a second heat exchanger that are mutually independent, and an air passage includes a first division passage and a second division passage. The intake system cools intake air utilizing a part of the air conditioner, and includes a connecting passage that guides first air cooled by passing through the first heat exchanger, a passage switch, and a controller. When the controller determines that a cooling demand for the intake air exists, it controls the first air to flow into an intake passage through the connecting passage, and when the controller determines that there is no cooling demand, it controls the first air to flow into the first division passage.
