Abstract

See full text

An exhaust passage structure of an internal combustion includes a first merging passage, a second merging passage, and a third merging passage connecting a third gathering portion in which the exhaust gas flowing through the first merging passage and the exhaust gas flowing through the second merging passage gather and a turbine of a turbocharger. The first merging passage and the second merging passage have respective narrowed portions in which passage cross-sectional areas are minimized. When a total value of passage cross-sectional areas of inlets of exhaust ports in one cylinder is set as a reference passage cross-sectional area A, and the passage cross-sectional areas of the narrowed portions of the first merging passage and the second merging passage are set as narrowed cross-sectional areas B, the exhaust passage structure is configured such that the relationship of 0.5≤(B/A)≤1 is established.
