ABSTRACT:
An engine system includes an internal combustion engine having an exhaust system, and an air supply passage connecting therewith. The engine system includes an auxiliary regeneration device coupled with the exhaust system, and an auxiliary power turbine coupled with the exhaust system and positioned downstream the auxiliary regeneration device. A method of providing power in an internal combustion engine system is further provided, including turning off the engine, moving gases through an exhaust system of the engine, including combusting a fuel in the exhaust system with an auxiliary regeneration device, and operating a power source separate from the engine by rotating an auxiliary power turbine via the gases moving through the exhaust system.
