An intake system of an engine mounted on a vehicle where a cabin is air-conditioned by an air conditioner, is provided. A heat exchanger of an evaporator of the air conditioner is divided into a first heat exchanger and a second heat exchanger that are mutually independent, and an air passage includes a first division passage and a second division passage. The intake system cools intake air utilizing a part of the air conditioner, and includes a connecting passage that guides first air cooled by passing through the first heat exchanger, a passage switch, and a controller. When the controller determines that a cooling demand for the intake air exists, it controls the first air to flow into an intake passage through the connecting passage, and when the controller determines that there is no cooling demand, it controls the first air to flow into the first division passage.

A dual entry turbine of a compression device includes a housing having a first inlet and a second inlet, and a first outlet and a second outlet. A turbine impeller is arranged within the housing. The turbine impeller has a first gas path and a second gas path. A first flow path extends from the first inlet to the first outlet via the first gas path and a second flow path extends from the second inlet to the second outlet via the second gas path. The first flow path and the second flow path being fluidly separate from one another.

A method of operating a forced induction gaseous-fueled engine includes mixing gaseous-fuel and engine intake air to form a mixture at a fuel mixer. The method includes delivering the mixture to an intake manifold by at least partially bypassing a charge air cooler.

Systems, devices, and methods are disclosed for attaching two automotive components comprising different materials having different coefficients of expansion, comprising providing a flange around a perimeter of each of the components, wherein at least one component defines a plenum contiguous to the perimeter, providing corresponding inner faces of the flanges, providing a channel in at least one of the corresponding faces of the flanges, wherein the channel is coaxial to the perimeter, disposing a gasket in the channel, and surrounding the flanges with a locking ring, wherein the ring has an axial channel and a pin disposed perpendicular to the channel to secure a first end of the locking ring to a mating second end of the locking ring.

An air cooling system for a vehicle engine includes an air intake configured to receive intake air for delivery to the engine, a first coolant loop thermally coupled to the air intake to provide cooling to the intake air, and a pump for circulating coolant through the first coolant loop. A second coolant loop is thermally coupled to the air intake to provide further cooling to the intake air, and undergoes a vapor compression cycle. A compressor circulates coolant through the second coolant loop. The first and second coolant loops are separate loops using a common condenser. A passive variable charge enabler assembly is configured to remove coolant circulating in the system when the compressor is on.

A fresh air supply device for an internal combustion engine may include a filter element arranged in a filter compartment. A charge-air cooler may be arranged in a cooler compartment. A one-piece housing may integrally include the filter compartment and the cooler compartment. The charge-air cooler may have a coolant inlet, a coolant outlet and an internal coolant path which connects the coolant inlet to the coolant outlet. The internal coolant path may be coupled in a heat-transferring manner to a charge-air path extending inside the housing and through the cooler compartment.

The intake air cooling device 100A constitutes a heat exchange device that performs heat exchange of the intake air of the internal combustion engine 6. The intake air cooling device 100A includes the heat exchange part 1A configured to perform heat exchange between the cooling liquid W that is introduced thereto and the intake air that is passing therethrough, and the intake air control valve 2 configured to perform control of the intake air that passes through the heat exchange part 1A. The cooling liquid introduction port 13 of the heat exchange part 1A and the intake air control valve 2 are provided at positions opposing each other with respect to the heat exchange part 1A.

A heat exchanger for a vehicle includes an inlet tank configured to receive air from an air circuit of the vehicle. The heat exchanger further includes a heat exchange assembly disposed intermediate the inlet tank and an outlet tank. The heat exchange assembly exchanging heat between the air and a coolant. The outlet tank is configured to directly couple to an engine block of the vehicle and convey the air to the engine block. The outlet tank has at least two openings formed therein. The openings are configured to communicate with corresponding cylinders of the engine block of the vehicle.

A self-propelled construction device, in particular a soil compactor, includes a turbocharged diesel engine with a first radiator arrangement for cooling charge air and a second radiator arrangement for cooling a cooling liquid and/or hydraulic oil, with a first radiator fan being allocated to the first radiator arrangement and a second radiator fan being allocated to the second radiator arrangement and the first radiator fan and the second radiator fan being able to be operated essentially independently from each other.

A system and method for removing condensate water of an intercooler for a hybrid vehicle are configured to improve combustion efficiency of an engine by supercharging intake air to a combustion chamber of the engine using an electronic compressor instead of an existing turbocharger and configured to backward drive the electronic compressor to distribute and capture the condensate water generated in the intercooler, especially, when the engine is turned off.
