Abstract
A two-stroke, opposed-piston engine includes a cylinder with an inlet piston controlled inlet port and an exhaust piston controlled exhaust port, the cylinder defining a combustion chamber with the inlet piston and the exhaust piston, a charge air channel in flow communication with the inlet port, a conduit extending directly from the combustion chamber to the charge air channel, and a valve arranged to selectively open and close flow communication through the conduit.
