Abstract
An exhaust gas recirculation system for an engine provides three modes of operation. In a bypass mode, exhaust gas bypasses a heat exchanger. In a single pass mode of operation, exhaust gas flows through the heat exchanger passageways. In a dual pass mode of operation, exhaust gas flows through the heat exchanger passageways in a manner that provides a longer effective flow length through the heat exchanger compared to the single pass mode, thereby to increase cooling efficacy.
