Abstract
An exhaust system includes a supercharger, a first communication path, a negative pressure generator, and an exhaust sensor. The supercharger includes a turbine and compressor. The turbine is provided in an exhaust pipe of an engine. The compressor is provided in an intake pipe and coupled to the turbine by a shaft. The supercharger supercharges intake air using energy of exhaust air. The first communication path communicates with the exhaust pipe on a downstream side of the turbine and communicates with the intake pipe on an upstream side of the compressor. The exhaust pipe and the intake pipe communicate through the first communication path. The negative pressure generator is interposed in the first communication path and generates a negative pressure. The exhaust sensor is provided in the first communication path between a location where the first communication path is coupled to the exhaust pipe and the negative pressure generator.
