Abstract: A charge air cooler (CAC) condensation dispersion system including a compressor for generating a hot compressed air flow; a CAC having an inlet tank for receiving the hot compressed air flow and an outlet tank for discharging a cooled compressed air flow; a condensate pickup tube having an inlet disposed in a lower volume of space within the outlet tank and an opposite outlet; and a condensate conveyance tube having a first end connected to the outlet of the pickup tube and an opposite second in in fluid connection with the inlet of the compressor. A solenoid actuated control valve is disposed in-line with the condensate conveyance tube. A controller configured to send a signal to the solenoid valve to selectively cycle the control valve between an open state and a closed state. An in-line orifice plate is disposed adjacent the second end of the condensate conveyance tube.
