Abstract
In accordance with the embodiments of the present invention, an engine is disclosed. The engine includes at least one donor cylinder and at least one non-donor cylinder coupled to an intake manifold feeding intake air and an exhaust manifold. The exhaust manifold is configured to carry an engine exhaust emission from the donor cylinder and the non-donor cylinder. The engine also includes an exhaust gas recirculation manifold extending from the donor cylinder to the intake manifold for recirculating a donor cylinder exhaust emission from the donor cylinder to the donor, and non-donor cylinders via the intake manifold. The engine further includes an after-treatment system and a sensor configured to sense a temperature of the engine exhaust emission and a device configured to receive a sensing signal from the sensor and to control a parameter of the engine and a component of the engine in response to the sensing signal.
