Abstract

A method and a device for exhaust gas recycling (EGR) in a combustion engine having two exhaust collectors. EGR gasses from the two exhausts collectors are combined in a mixing section of the EGR channel where they are accelerated, in a contraction portion, mixed and expanded. EGR gasses from a first exhaust collector are led into a first and EGR gasses from a second exhaust collector are led into a second portion of the contraction portion, which is arranged sideways with respect to the first portion of the contraction portion and separated therefrom up to the upstream area of the transition portion.
