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.

An air intake amount measurement device 200 includes an intake distributor 3 distributing intake air CYL to cylinders 11, 12, 13, and 14, a temperature detector 202 detecting a temperature Ti of the intake air CYL, a pressure detector 201 for detecting a pressure Pi of intake air CL, and a computing unit 100 that computes an air intake amount mfcyl of the intake air CYL on the basis of the temperature Ti transmitted from the temperature detector 202 and the pressure Pi transmitted from the pressure detector 201. The temperature detector 202 detects the temperature Ti of the intake air CYL at a region W spanning, out of an inside of the intake distributor 3, a first branch portion 31 and a second branch portion 32.

An intake control device 1 includes: a body 3 including an intake passage 2; and a valve body 4 located in the intake passage 2. The intake passage 2 includes a direction continuation segment 13 in which a first major axis direction d1 and a second major axis direction d2 are approximately parallel to each other continuously from a downstream opening 6 of the body 3. The body 3 includes a seal plane 14 formed along a plane that intersects with part of the direction continuation segment 13. The valve body 4 includes a valve plane 15 formed by a plane that abuts the seal plane 14, and is configured to slide relative to the seal plane 14 via the valve plane 15 to adjust an opening degree of the intake passage 2.

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.

The disclosure relates to a method for operating a supercharged internal combustion engine having at least one cylinder group with a number n of combustion chambers, wherein, during a first operating state, all n combustion chambers are supplied with combustion air via a primary charge air path and, during a second operating state, only a portion of the n combustion chambers are supplied with combustion air from the primary charge air path and another portion of the n combustion chambers are supplied with combustion air from a separate compressed air reservoir.
