Patent ID: 8307643

Claim:
An engine air intake system for a vehicle having an internal combustion engine comprising: a turbocharger; a CAC heat exchanger having an inlet end configured to receive compressed intake air from the turbocharger and an outlet end; a remote condensate reservoir mounted in the vehicle spaced from the CAC heat exchanger, configured to store condensate therein, and having a top surface; a condensate drain tube extending from the outlet end to the remote condensate reservoir configured to allow condensate produced in the CAC heat exchanger to flow into the remote condensate reservoir; an air duct connecting the outlet end to the engine and configured to direct air flow from the outlet end to the engine; and a reservoir outlet hose connected to the top surface of the remote condensate reservoir at a first end and connected to the air duct at a second end and configured to allow condensate evaporating from the remote condensate reservoir to be drawn through the reservoir outlet hose into the air duct.
