Abstract
An air supply device for an electrically heated catalyst is proposed. The device includes an electronic supercharger fluidly connected to an intake manifold, an intake valve fluidly connected to the electronic supercharger, an exhaust valve fluidly connected to an exhaust manifold of the engine, an electrically heated catalyst fluidly connected to the exhaust manifold and positioned in a front end of a catalyst part, and a controller configured to control driving of the electronic supercharger and an opening degree of each of the intake valve and the exhaust valve. The controller controls the electronic supercharger based on a door opening condition in a cold operation and switches the intake valve to an advance state and the exhaust valve to a retard state, thus heating the electrically heated catalyst.
