Abstract:
A method includes combusting air within a plurality of cylinders of an internal combustion engine by injecting a fuel into the plurality of cylinders. The method further includes expanding a first portion of an exhaust gas generated from the plurality of combustion cylinders via a turbine. The method further includes controlling at least one of feeding a second portion of the exhaust gas via an exhaust channel bypassing the turbine; and recirculating a third portion of the exhaust gas to the plurality of combustion cylinders via a recirculation channel, as a function of an intake manifold air temperature and pressure at which the engine is operated.

Abstract:
A method of operating an internal combustion engine is provided. The method includes combusting a mixture of fresh air and fuel within multiple cylinders. The method also includes directing a first portion of exhaust gases into a first-stage turbine and a second-stage turbine of a turbocharger for expanding the exhaust gases, directing a second portion of exhaust gases from the exhaust manifold via an exhaust channel bypassing the first-stage turbine and recirculating a third portion of exhaust gases into an intake manifold after mixing with fresh air. The method includes controlling at least one of: reducing a normal engine speed at each engine power setting while maintaining constant engine power level by increasing a fuel injection per cycle; concurrently increasing a flow rate of the third portion of exhaust gas during recirculation; and advancing a fuel injection timing for reducing emission levels that meets Tier 4 requirements.
