Abstract:
An engine (1) with an internal combustion engine (2) and with a turbocharger, containing a compressor (4) which via an intake conduit (9a) suctions air,wherein the engine (1) comprises a container (12) with water to be added into the intake air,wherein the engine (1) comprises means (14, 13) for producing a pressure in the water, which is determined by the pressure in the intake conduit (9b) between the compressor (4) and the intake air distributor (7),and wherein the container (12) is connected with a water supply (13, 18, 19) for adding water into the intake air to the intake conduit (9a) in front of the compressor (4), characterised in that in the connection conduit (19) between the intake conduit (9a) and the water container (12) there is mounted a combination nozzle (18) for spraying the water into the intake conduit (9a), wherein for the admixture of air and for atomising the water in the combination nozzle (18), above the water level (15) on the pressure container (12) there is connected a pressurised air conduit (17) which, parallel to the first water-conducting pressure conduit (13), leads to the nozzle (18).
