Abstract

See full text

The present invention includes an internal combustion engine having at least one piston reciprocating within a cylinder, and an exhaust port allowing communication of the cylinder with an exhaust passage. A moveable shutter is provided to vary the effective area of the exhaust port. The shutter varies the effective area cyclically in a timed relationship to the reciprocal motion of the piston within the cylinder. A sensor is provided to measure an operating characteristic of the engine and to generate signals responding to the operating characteristic sensed. A control unit is provided to process the signals and to control the motion of the shutter in response to the signals.
