A condensed water treatment device for an internal combustion engine is provided. The condensed water treatment device may include a condensed water tank, a condensed water supply device, and a condensed-water generation quantity controlling device. The condensed water treatment device may further include a computer. The computer by executing a computer program may function as a storage-water-quantity decrease controlling device and a storage-water-quantity increase controlling device.

Various methods and systems are provided for controlling air flow in a two-stage turbocharger. In one example, an engine method comprises adjusting one or more exhaust gas recirculation valves to maintain a first turbocharger within a first air flow range, and adjusting a turbocharger bypass valve to maintain a second turbocharger within a second air flow range.

The present invention relates to a cooling control apparatus which performs control for cooling an internal combustion engine by causing an electric pump to circulate cooling water and causing an electric fan to supply cooling air to a radiator. The cooling control apparatus comprises an electric pump for circulating a coolant through a coolant passage formed in the internal combustion engine, and a radiator and a radiator fan which are for cooling the coolant. When the internal combustion engine stops after completion of warming-up, the radiator fan and the electric pump are driven to cool the internal combustion engine, and when a temperature of the coolant decreases to less than a temperature at a time of engine stop, the radiator fan is stopped in a state in which the electric pump is operated.

Methods and systems for an engine intake system are provided. In one example, a system includes a first charge air cooler arranged upstream of a second charge air cooler. The first charge air cooler is configured to provide thermal transfer between a compressed charge air and a fresh intake air.

A system and method are provided for estimating an operating parameter of an exhaust manifold of an engine. In the system, a flow value is determined that corresponds to a flow rate of exhaust gas through an EGR conduit fluidly coupled between the exhaust manifold and the intake manifold. The EGR conduit includes an exhaust gas cooler disposed in-line with the EGR conduit and a property of the exhaust gas exiting an exhaust gas outlet of the cooler is measured. The operating parameter of the exhaust manifold is estimated as a function of at least the flow value and the property of the exhaust gas exiting the exhaust gas outlet of the cooler. Illustratively, the operating parameter of the exhaust manifold may be exhaust manifold pressure and/or temperature.

Various methods and systems are provided for an exhaust gas recirculation cooler including a plurality of cooling tubes. In one example, an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) cooler includes a plurality of cooling tubes positioned within a housing of the EGR cooler, each cooling tube of the plurality of cooling tubes extending between and directly coupled to tube sheets of the EGR cooler at ends of each cooling tube, where at least one end of one or more cooling tubes of a first portion of the plurality of cooling tubes, inward of a tube sheet coupled to the at least one end, includes a compliant region, where the first portion is positioned proximate to an exhaust inlet of the EGR cooler.

A system for recycling exhaust heat from an internal combustion engine is based on a recycling type of circulating a working fluid using the exhaust heat from the internal combustion engine. The system may include an EGR line configured to circulate a portion of exhaust gas generated from the internal combustion engine to an intake side, a working fluid circulation line configured to rotate a turbine with a working fluid vaporized by heat transferred from the EGR line, and an EGR side heat exchange unit configured to thermally connect the EGR line to the working fluid circulation line to cool an EGR gas by transferring heat from the EGR gas to the working fluid.
