Abstract
When EGR gases are introduced into the intake passage through EGR passage, the control device determines whether or not the condensed water is generated in the merging portion of the intake passage, which is the portion to which EGR passage is connected. The control device determines whether or not the internal combustion engine is in a high-load operation based on the engine speed and the engine torque. The control device determines that the condensed water is generated in the merging portion of the intake passage, and reduces the amount of the condensed water collected by the collection device when the internal combustion engine is determined to be in a high-load operation.
