Heat Recovery System

A heat recovery system, comprising:

• an exhaust gas conduit extending according to an axial direction and comprising an exhaust gas inlet and an exhaust gas outlet,
• a heat exchanger comprising a heat exchange block wherein heat transfer between the exhaust gas and a liquid coolant is established, the heat exchanger being in fluid communication with the exhaust gas conduit through:
• at least a first intake opening located in the wall of the exhaust gas conduit corresponding with the inlet into the heat exchanger, and
• at least a second exhaust opening located in the wall of the exhaust gas conduit corresponding with the outlet from the heat exchanger,
• wherein each opening extends according to the axial direction between a first reference plane, transverse to the axial direction, located upstream according to the exhaust gas flow, and a second reference plane transverse to the axial direction, located downstream according to the exhaust gas flow;
• a valve defining two end positions:
• a first position, wherein the exhaust gas flow travels through the exhaust gas conduit without passing through the heat exchanger, and
• a second position, wherein the exhaust gas flow passes through the heat exchanger, a cooled exhaust gas flow thereby being obtained,
• wherein the system further comprises:
• a flow guide housed in the exhaust gas conduit extending along a segment in the axial direction and leading the exhaust gas flow at least from the first reference plane of one of the openings to reduce or eliminate the exhaust gas flow in the first position of the valve through said opening to the exchange block of the heat exchanger.
