Abstract:
Methods and systems are provided for de-icing a charge-air cooler of a boosted engine system when the engine is turned off. In one example, a method may include recirculating air through a bypass passage including an activated electric supercharger and the CAC. The air is warmed by compression and thaws ice accumulated in the CAC.

Claim (Index 1):
A supercharged internal combustion engine comprising at least one cylinder head comprising at least one cylinder, in which;\n each cylinder has at least one inlet opening which is adjoined by an intake line for the supply of air via an intake system; and each cylinder has at least one outlet opening which is adjoined by an exhaust line for the discharge of the exhaust gases via an exhaust-gas discharge system; and a charge-air cooler is provided in the intake system; and an electrically driveable compressor is arranged in the intake system, the electrically driveable compressor being the compressor of an electric supercharger; and wherein a bypass line is provided, which branches off from the intake system, so as to form a first junction point, downstream of the electrically driveable compressor and downstream of the charge-air cooler and opens into the intake system, so as to form a second junction point, upstream of the electrically driveable compressor and upstream of the charge-air cooler.
