Abstract
A condensation dispersion device for a turbocharged vehicle engine includes a valve body, a movable valve, and a biasing means. The movable valve and biasing means are disposed within the valve body. The valve body defines a valve seat within the valve body, and includes an inlet and an outlet. The movable valve defines an engagement feature operatively configured to engage with the valve seat when the movable valve is in a first position. The biasing means is operatively configured to urge the movable valve to a second position when the pressure in the intake manifold is equal to or greater than atmospheric pressure.
