  • This embodiment allows the recycling of hot d. H. not cooled exhaust gases, which may be advantageous under certain operating conditions of the internal combustion engine.
  • a supercharged internal combustion engine is thermally more heavily loaded than a comparable naturally aspirated engine, which is why the cylinder head of a supercharged internal combustion engine is usually equipped with a liquid cooling or a coolant jacket high cooling capacity, which can then be used according to the invention in an advantageous manner for cooling the recirculating exhaust gas.
  • the exhaust gas temperatures are higher in supercharged internal combustion engines, so that a cooling of the recirculated exhaust gas, in particular in supercharged internal combustion engines is required to realize high return rates.
  • the turbine of an exhaust gas turbocharger is disposed in the overall exhaust line, thereby increasing the exhaust pressure upstream of the turbine and thus also the exhaust pressure in the manifold, which in turn facilitates the introduction of the exhaust gas streams in the return line - provided the return line branches upstream of the turbine from the manifold or the entire exhaust line. In this way, high return rates can be realized.
  • the recirculating exhaust gas is introduced upstream of the associated compressor in the intake, whereby a good mixing of the intake fresh air with the recirculated exhaust gas takes place when flowing through the compressor, which is particularly advantageous at high recirculation rates for the formation of a homogeneous fresh cylinder charge.
