Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for merging recirculated exhaust gas (EGR) with fresh intake air in an intake passage. In one example, a method may include introducing EGR to the intake passage via an angled annular slot and flowing unmixed EGR and ambient air through an intake compressor inlet. Ambient air may flow to a center of the intake compressor while the EGR may flow along a periphery of the intake compressor inlet.
