An engine may include an engine including combustion chambers, an intake line connected to the plurality of combustion chambers and through which outside air supplied to the combustion chamber flows, an intake manifold connected to an intake side of the combustion chamber, an exhaust manifold connected to an exhaust side of the combustion chamber, an exhaust line connected to the exhaust manifold, a turbocharger including a compressor mounted in the intake line, and a turbine rotating in association with the compressor and connected to the exhaust manifold and the exhaust line, a wastegate passage bypassing the turbine from the exhaust manifold, an electric supercharger connected to the compressor of the turbocharger by the intake line, a power device electrically-connected to the electric supercharger and configured for supplying electric power to the electric supercharger or absorbing and storing electric power generated by the electric supercharger, and a controller for controlling the operation of the power device and the electric supercharger according to rotation speed of the engine.

Engine system

An exhaust manifold mounting structure for an engine includes: a bolt fixed to the engine; a flange integrally formed with the exhaust manifold or disposed inside the exhaust manifold and including a bolt hole through which the bolt penetrates; a nut engaged with the bolt that penetrates the flange; and a loosening prevention plate through which the bolt penetrates, and which is disposed between the nut and the flange. The loosening prevention plate extends in a length direction of the flange.

Exhaust manifold mounting structure for engine

An engine system may include: an engine including a plurality of combustion chambers generating driving torque by burning fuel; an intake line through which fresh air flows into the combustion chambers; an intake manifold for distributing fresh air supplied by the intake line to the combustion chambers; an exhaust line in which exhaust gas exhausted from the combustion chambers flows; a recirculation line branched from the exhaust line and joined to the intake line; a connection pipe disposed at a portion where the recirculation line and the intake line are joined; and a water line connecting the connection pipe and the intake manifold. Condensate water generated at the connection pipe flows in the water line.

An intake manifold includes: a lower body having an air inlet through which an air flows; an EGR gas inlet through which an EGR gas flows; and a plurality of lower runners disposed at the plurality of combustion chambers, respectively, to supply the air inflowing through the air inlet and the EGR gas inflowing through the EGR gas inlet to each of the plurality of combustion chambers; and an upper body combined with the lower body and having one side connected to the plurality of lower runners and another side having an upper runner connected to the intake port. The lower body further includes a condensed water storage apparatus temporary storing a condensed water generated by a mixture of the air and the EGR gas.

Apparatus for retrieving exhaust heat of engine and method for controlling engine using the same

A control method of an LPI lamp for an LPI vehicle and logic for the control method can turn on again an LPG switch when the LPG switch is unintentionally turned off, by making a driver recognize whether the LPG switch is turned off, by switching an LPI lamp on and off. For this configuration, the control method of an LPI lamp for an LPI vehicle includes checking whether an LPG switch that stops fuel supply to an engine has been turned on or off, and switching the LPI lamp on and off, when it is determined that the LPG switch has been turned off, in an LPI vehicle in an ignition-on state.

Control method of LPI lamp for LPI vehicle and logic therefor

An intake manifold module for preventing fuel leakage of a vehicle, may include a runner unit where a runner may be formed, a mount section connected with the runner unit and mounted at an intake port of a cylinder head, and a reinforcing bracket mounted at an edge around an injector installed on the cylinder head in the mount section, wherein the reinforcing bracket may be pre-mounted in a process line prior to an engine assembly line by using a joining member.
