Abstract

An internal combustion engine includes an engine structure defining a plurality of cylinders. One of the plurality of cylinders is a dedicated exhaust gas recirculation cylinder wherein the exhaust passage in communication with the dedicated exhaust gas recirculation cylinder is an exhaust gas recirculation passage that is in communication with an intake manifold that is in communication with the plurality of intake passages. An exhaust gas recirculation cooler is in communication with the exhaust gas recirculation passage. A charge air cooler is in communication with an inlet air / exhaust gas recirculation mixer. A condensate collection vessel is provided for collecting condensate from one or both of the exhaust gas recirculation cooler and the charge air cooler. An injection system injects condensate from the condensate collection vessel into the plurality of cylinders.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to internal combustion engines, and more particularly to condensate collection and injection for use with internal combustion engines having dedicated exhaust gas recirculation cylinders. Background technique [0002] This section provides background information to which the present disclosure is not necessarily prior art. [0003] Internal combustion engines utilizing dedicated exhaust gas recirculation cylinders are known in the art. Dedicated exhaust gas recirculation systems utilize exhaust gas generated in engine cylinders dedicated for reintroduction as exhaust gas recirculation. Improved vehicle fuel efficiency has been demonstrated through the use of dedicated exhaust gas recirculation cylinder technology. [0004] The exhaust consists of 10-15% water. The exhaust gas recirculated in the dedicated exhaust gas recirculation engine is first cooled by the exhaust gas recirculation cooler and then cooled again by th...
