Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2077387A1] The method involves diverting recirculated exhaust gas flow from an exhaust gas mass flow by return pipes (7a, 7b), and conducting the recirculated exhaust gas flow over a discharge opening of a cylinder of an internal combustion engine. An exhaust gas pipe is connected to a discharge opening, and the exhaust gas pipe of the cylinder within a cylinder head by forming an exhaust manifold at a common exhaust gas pipe. The exhaust manifold is completely integrated in the cylinder head. The recirculated exhaust gas flow within the cylinder head is diverted by the return pipes.
