An exhaust heat recovery device according to one aspect of the present disclosure includes a heat exchanger, a supply flow path, and a discharge flow path. The heat exchanger has a plurality of heat exchange flow paths configured to carry out heat exchange between exhaust gas and a heat exchange medium. The supply flow path is configured such that the exhaust gas flows therethrough, and the flowing exhaust gas is supplied to the plurality of heat exchange flow paths while being branched. The discharge flow path is configured to merge and discharge the heat-exchanged exhaust gas having passed through the plurality of heat exchange flow paths. At least one flow path of the supply flow path and the discharge flow path is configured to be narrower toward a downstream side in a flow direction of the exhaust gas.

A multi-port exhaust gas diverter valve disposed within a linkage of an exhaust manifold for selectively diverting an exhaust gas generated by an internal combustion engine to one or more of a turbocharger system, an exhaust gas recirculation system, and an emissions control system. The diverter valve includes an inlet port for receiving an exhaust gas from the exhaust manifold and a plurality of outlet ports. A rotatable valve sleeve having an open end and a slot opening is co-axially disposed within a cylindrical chamber defined by the valve body. The open end of the valve sleeve is in continuous fluid communication with the inlet port. The valve sleeve is selectively rotatable to align the slot opening with at least one of the plurality of outlet ports such that the valve sleeve provides fluid communication between the inlet port and the at least one of the outlet ports.

A valve form exhaust gas recirculation Mac in an engine includes a first barrel connectable to a first group of cylinders, a second barrel connectable to a second group of cylinders, and a center barrel between the first and second barrels and connectable to an intake oft he engine. A poppet valve with two valve heads mounted on a valve stem is provided to open and close openings between the first and second barrels, with one of the valve beads of the poppet valve opening into the center barrel Vanes are provided-in the center barrel to direct flow from the opening by the valve bead that opens into the center barrel toward the outlet opening.

An exhaust manifold for use with an internal combustion engine, the exhaust manifold including a body, one or more fluid passageways defined by the body, a valve in fluid communication with at least one of the one or more fluid passageways, the valve being adjustable between an open configuration and a closed configuration, a mounting bracket supported by the body, and an actuator in operable communication with the valve and configured to adjust the valve between the open and closed configurations, and wherein the actuator is coupled to the mounting bracket.
