Abstract: A charge air system for a combustion engine and an operation method are provided. The charge air system includes a first turbocharger stage for intake of combustion air supplied to the engine from a first pressure to a second pressure, a second turbocharger stage for compression of the compressed air to a third pressure, a first heat exchanger being arranged between the first and the second turbocharger stage for cooling the compressed air, a first intake air bypass for modulating the flow of the air through the first heat exchanger and/or a first mass flow control unit for controlling the flow of a cooling medium supplied to the first heat exchanger.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for achieving reduced emissions at cold start of an internal combustion engine having an exhaust gas after treatment system comprising at least one Diesel Oxygen Catalyst (DOC), at least one Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) and a Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) unit, comprising the steps of: heating the DOC prior to cold starting said internal combustion engine, starting and controlling the internal combustion engine towards low NOx emission when said DOC has reached a predetermined temperature, optimizing the fuel consumption at a given total emission level when said DPF and SCR has reached a predetermined temperature.

Abstract: Apparatus and a process for supplying recirculated exhaust gases to incoming air to a piston-type internal combustion engine. The apparatus includes a duct (2) for incoming air and a feed pipe (1) for exhaust gases and is especially well characterized in that the feed pipe (1) opens out into an outlet section (3) having at least one outlet (4) for the supply of the exhaust gases, which outlet section constitutes an outlet path (a) extended in the longitudinal direction of the duct.

Abstract: Method and arrangement for enhancing exhaust gas recirculation efficiency on a combustion engine by providing a combustion engine having an exhaust system in fluid communication, via at least one juncture, with an exhaust gas recirculation system and locating a reflector in the exhaust system downstream of the at least one juncture. The reflector is adapted to reflect at least a portion of exhaust gas pressure pulses emitting from the combustion engine thereby causing a reflected pressure pulse to occur upstream of the reflector, and deflecting at least a portion of the reflected pressure pulse into the exhaust gas recirculation system thereby enhancing the efficiency of the exhaust gas recirculation system.
