Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for merging recirculated exhaust gas (EGR) with fresh intake air in an intake passage. In one example, a method may include introducing EGR to the intake passage via an angled annular slot and flowing unmixed EGR and ambient air through an intake compressor inlet. Ambient air may flow to a center of the intake compressor while the EGR may flow along a periphery of the intake compressor inlet.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for a compressor adapted with a movable sleeve and an active casing treatment that form separate air flow chambers. In one example, a method includes flowing intake air in a first direction through a casing to an impeller of a compressor, selectively flowing intake air from the casing through a first chamber in an opposite, second direction, the first chamber circumferentially surrounding the casing, and selectively flowing intake air in the first direction through a second chamber to the impeller, the second chamber circumferentially surrounding the first chamber. In this way, compressor surge may be mitigated without reducing compressor efficiency at higher air flow rates.
