The invention relates to a heat exchange device characterized by a particular configuration of the liquid inlet or outlet manifold in which it incorporates a baffle formed from the shell itself. This configuration allows not only suitably orient the inflow into regions of the tube bundle of the exchanger where convection must be more intense, but also allows generating a flow suitable for reaching all the regions having a higher convective heat transfer requirement. Configuring a baffle from the shell prevents incorporating and manufacturing specific additional parts, as well as the additional operations required for their configuration and attachment to the heat exchanger.

Methods and systems are provided for controlling the temperature and ratio of gases within a gas mixing tank reservoir and selectively charging/discharging gases from the reservoir to one or both of an intake system or an exhaust system. In one example, a method (or system) may include storing exhaust gas and/or compressed intake air into a gas mixing reservoir, and increasing or decreasing flow of coolant to the reservoir based on engine operating conditions. The stored gases may be discharged to an intake system and/or an exhaust system based on requests from a controller, and coolant flow to the reservoir may be adjusted based on the composition of the gases stored within the reservoir.

An assembly for a motor vehicle has an exhaust gas-carrying pipe in which an adjustable element is arranged to control an exhaust gas flow through the exhaust gas-carrying pipe. An actuator is used to adjust the adjustable element. The actuator is connected in a planar manner to a vehicle structure via a connecting surface.
