The disclosure relates to an exhaust gas conduction system for a gasoline engine, comprising an exhaust gas line which can be connected to an exhaust manifold of the gasoline engine, an intake line which can be connected to an intake manifold of the gasoline engine, a charge air compressor which is arranged in the intake line, and a turbine which is arranged in the exhaust gas line. The exhaust gas line has at least one bypass line with a bypass throttle valve, said line branching off from the exhaust gas line upstream of the turbine and branching back into the exhaust gas line at an opening downstream of the turbine. At least one exhaust gas recirculation line with an EGR throttle valve is provided, said line opening into the intake line, wherein the exhaust gas recirculation line branches off from the bypass line at a branch, and the bypass throttle valve is arranged upstream of the branch of the exhaust gas recirculation line. At least one particle filter is arranged in the bypass line downstream of the branch of the exhaust gas recirculation line, and an exhaust gas valve is provided in the exhaust gas line upstream of the opening of the bypass line.

In an EGR device in which an EGR passage is merged with an intake passage communicating with a compressor housing of a supercharger, the EGR passage is extended to the inner side of the intake passage with respect to a junction between the EGR passage and the intake passage, and the position of a terminal end of an extended passage section in an air flow direction matches the position of a terminal end of the intake passage, the extended passage section being the EGR passage extended. The merged passage section where the EGR passage is merged with the intake passage is a joint pipe that connects an intake tube and the compressor housing.

Methods and systems are provided for operating a split exhaust engine system that provides blowthrough air and exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) to an intake passage via a ported scavenge manifold. In one example, the ported scavenge manifold includes a first scavenge manifold coupled to a plurality of exhaust runners and a second scavenge manifold coupled to the plurality of exhaust runners via ports. The location of the ports on the exhaust runners combined with adjustments to a bypass valve coupled between the first scavenge manifold and an exhaust passage and an EGR valve coupled between the second scavenge manifold and the intake passage enables exhaust gas to be preferentially flowed to the exhaust passage and blowthrough air to be preferentially flowed to the intake passage under select operating conditions.

Methods and systems are provided for adjusting operation of a split exhaust engine system based on a total flow of gases through a scavenge exhaust gas recirculation system of the split exhaust engine system. In one example, a method may include adjusting engine operation in response to a flow of gases to an intake passage, upstream of a compressor, from a scavenge manifold coupled to scavenge exhaust valves, the flow of gases determined based on a valve opening overlap between the scavenge exhaust valves and intake valves of an engine, the scavenge exhaust valves opened at a different time than blowdown exhaust valves coupled to a blowdown manifold coupled to a turbine.

Methods and systems are provided for a comprex charger. In one example, a comprex charger is integrally arranged with an electric machine and shares a cooling arrangement therewith.

A control device for an internal combustion engine includes an intake channel, an exhaust gas recirculation channel which enters into the intake channel, a control element, a mixing housing which forms the intake channel, a connection element, a compressor, and a shaft. The mixing housing has a mouth of the exhaust gas recirculation channel in a lower area, an outlet, a mixing housing section, and a bowl-shaped recess. The cross-sectional extension is formed via the mixing housing to provide an axial stop face. The connection element abuts against the axial stop face and is radially limited by an axially opposite inner wall surface on the stop face. The mixing housing section has a recess arranged at the lowest point of the mixing housing section and below the axially opposite inner wall surface. The recess enters into the bowl-shaped recess of the mixing housing.

Methods and systems are provided for adjusting amount of directly injected fuel scavenged via a second exhaust manifold of a split exhaust engine system. In one example, a method may include adjusting a start of injection of a fuel direct injection into an engine cylinder, the cylinder including a first exhaust valve coupled to a first exhaust manifold and a second exhaust valve coupled to a second exhaust manifold, the second exhaust manifold coupled to an intake of the engine, based on a closing timing of the second exhaust valve and dependent on an operating condition, and adjusting a position of a bypass valve of the second exhaust manifold based on the adjusted start of injection. In this way, the amount of scavenged fuel may be increased or decreased based on the operating condition.
