Exhaust Gas Recirculation

Exhaust from exhaust

runners/manifold diverted back to

intake manifold

Traditional method for reducing

oxides of nitrogen (NOx) in fixed

valve timing engines

Reduces NOx creation by reducing

combustion temperatures

External EGR:

Operation

Operational range

– 25º of exhaust cam timing retard

Camshaft Position Actuator onlyoperates

– above 1200 RPM

Intake charge is diluted with exhaust gas in the combustion chamber

– similar to EGR

– amount of dilution varies as required by PCM
