Does EGR system Decreases Engine Power? (Must Know)

Does EGR system Decrease Engine Power? You will be shocked to know that the EGR system in automobiles decreases the volumetric efficiency as well as power output.  Yes, you heard it right. Then, you must be thinking. why are we using EGR? What it actually does? Does it do any other thing to the engine? All these doubts and topics are covered in this article. Let's get started. Little Intro to EGR EGR stands for Exhaust Gas Recirculation System . It is part of em mission control system in an automobile vehicle. It has zero roles in increasing engine power. It is used in vehicles to stop the formation of NOx gas. Which are very harmful to nature. Generally, when a vehicle runs on the road it produces lots of smoke and pollutants like carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and the most dangerous one i.e. oxides of nitrogen . Formation of NOx Fas Inside Engines Cylinder It is essential to know how and when NOx is formed inside an engine's combustion chamber. Nitrogen and oxygen are...

EGR SCR In Automobile Vehicle (Simplified)

Exhaust Gas Recirculation System EGR system I.e. exhaust gas recirculation system is one of the processes of controlling pollution emitted from automobiles . What is EGR? The full form of EGR is an exhaust gas recirculation system. It reduces the formation of NOx gas from the combustion chamber. This is the main purpose of EGR . The oxides of nitrogen are harmful to our environment so, in order to control it, a system is introduced in bs4 model vehicles. How does EGR work? The working of EGR is simple and clear to understand. As the name suggests, exhaust gas recirculation, means exhaust gases are recirculated and sent back to the intake manifold of the engine. Only 6 to 10% of exhaust gases are sent to the combustion chamber via the intake manifold.  Between the intake manifold and exhaust manifold, an EGR valve is fitted. Which allows the exhaust gas to enter the intake manifold. The EGR valve is automatically controlled by ECU (engine control unit). An...
