Abstract
An internal combustion engine with an exhaust turbocharger and an exhaust-gas recirculation device comprises a turbine, assigned to the exhaust turbocharger, in the exhaust section and a compressor in the intake duct, the turbine having at least two flow passages, via which exhaust gas can be fed to the turbine rotor. For the purpose of dimensioning the two flow passages, an asymmetry factor is determined as a function of the displacement of the internal combustion engine.
