Embodiment Construction
[0015] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of an engine, such as a vehicle diesel engine, which can implement the method of the present invention. The method of the present invention can also be applied to other types of internal combustion engines.
[0016] The engine 1 is provided with an intake duct 2 and a breather duct 3 of the crankcase, which generally communicates the crankcase with the intake duct, for example upstream of a high boost turbocharger 4 . The snorkel usually includes various types of means 5, such as separation means consisting of various filters, inertial separators or other, to separate the oil carried out by the air flow for its reintroduction into the crankcase.
[0017] According to the invention, a suitably calibrated hydrocarbon-detectable sensor 6 (HC sensor) is used for measuring the hydrocarbon concentration of crankcase blow-by gas.
[0018] According to one embodiment of the invention, gas can be vented at a suitable location and delivered to a m...
