An air intake device for a vehicle. The device includes an inlet for air, a first outlet arranged for providing air to an engine of the vehicle and a second outlet arranged for discharging liquid separated from the air provided to the first outlet, and an intermediate portion forming an air channel extending from the inlet to the first outlet and the second outlet. A bottom surface on the inside of the intermediate portion is inclined relative to a horizontal plane for directing liquid in the air channel towards the second outlet.

An air intake set for a motor vehicle engine, including an air intake hose, a flow meter and a device for directing an air flow positioned upstream of the flow meter with respect to the direction of circulation of the air flow in the hose. The device for directing an air flow is adapted to guide the air flow towards the flow meter and has a variable permeability so as to set the velocity of the air flow.

A heat storage cover is provided in an engine room. The heat storage cover covers an engine from above and surrounds the periphery of an upper portion of the engine to internally store, through the medium of air, heat dissipated from the engine and block upward heat dissipation. The engine includes an air inlet for introducing, into a combustion chamber, high temperature air obtained by the heat storage cover blocking the upward heat dissipation.

A straddle-type vehicle (100) includes a frame (20) and an engine (10) mounted on the frame (20), the engine (10) includes a cylinder head (11) positioned toward the rear end of the frame, and located below a saddle seat (80). The cylinder head laces toward the rear end of the frame, which allows the heated cylinder head of the engine and the exhaust pipe connected to the cylinder head to avoid contact with the vehicle the user's legs while riding the vehicle, so the effect of heat emitted from the cylinder head on the rider's experience is reduced.

A turbocharger and method of controlling the same includes a turbine housing comprising an inlet and an outlet, turbine wheel coupled to a shaft. The turbine housing comprising a first scroll and a second scroll for fluidically coupling the inlet and the turbine wheel. The first scroll has a first end adjacent the inlet and a second end adjacent the turbine wheel. The second scroll has a third end adjacent the inlet and a fourth end adjacent the turbine wheel. An exhaust gas diverter valve is coupled to the turbine housing restricting flow into the first scroll or the second scroll.

A compressor for an intake section of an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle includes an electric motor which has a stator and a rotor where the rotor is drivable by the stator and is rotatable about an axis of rotation relative to the stator. An impeller is drivable by the rotor to compress air which is flowable through the intake section and which is to be supplied to a combustion chamber of the internal combustion engine. The rotor is a brushless external rotor such that at least one length region of the stator is disposed in at least one length region of the rotor.

An air intake apparatus for an internal combustion engine includes an outer port member facing an inner surface of a suction port, an inner port member arranged inside the outer port member, and a heater arranged inside the inner port member. The inner port member is stacked on an outside of the heater in a direction orthogonal to an intake flow direction of the suction port, and is configured to insulate heat from the heater.

A compressor bypass reintroduction system includes a compressor intake manifold and a bypass conduit. The compressor intake manifold defines a fluid plenum. The compressor intake manifold is engageable with a compressor. The bypass conduit extends into the fluid plenum and includes an ejector line. The ejector line is configured to be substantially collinear with the compressor and to discharge flow toward the compressor. In some embodiments, an outlet of the ejector is disposed proximate to an outlet of the fluid plenum that discharges flow into the compressor.
