- the engine preferably is a two-stroke engine or a two-stroke cross head engine.
- the engine can be a diesel or a gas engine, a dual fuel or a multi fuel engine. Burning of liquid and or gaseous fuels in such engines is possible as well as self-igniting or forced igniting.
- the internal combustion engine can be a longitudinally flushed two-stroke engine.
- internal combustion engine also refers to large engines which can be operated not only in diesel mode, which is characterized by the self-ignition of the fuel, but also in Otto mode, which is characterized by the positive ignition of the fuel, or in mixtures of the two. Furthermore, the term internal combustion engine includes in particular dual-fuel engines and large engines in which the self-ignition of the fuel is used for the positive ignition of another fuel.
- Engine speed is preferably below 800 RPM, especially for 4-stroke engines, and more preferably below 200 RPM, especially for 2-stroke engines, which indicates the designation of low-speed engines.
- Fuel can be diesel or marine diesel oils or heavy fuel oils or emulsions or slurries or methanol or ethanol as well as gases like liquid natural gas (LNG) liquid petrol gas (LPG) and so on.
- LNG liquid natural gas
- LPG liquid petrol gas

- EGR exhaust gas recirculation
- EGR low pressure exhaust gas recirculation
- the low pressure EGR path may be branched off downstream a turbine of a turbocharger, and recirculated exhaust gas may be guided through a compressor of the turbocharger together with fresh air.
- the low pressure EGR path is provided with a low pressure EGR cooling device.
- the low pressure EGR cooler may have a size that is too big to mount it close to or on-engine.
- EP2853726B1 discloses a specific engine design which allows downsizing the low pressure cooler.
- JP2000248936A2 disclose an engine with an EGR cooler having a small installation space.
- the EGR cooler is arranged close to the rear end of the engine body.
- the EGR cooler is supported by a single mounting stay that is coupled to a portion of the engine body and a portion of the intake pipe.
- a cooling absorber providing cooling with a cascade of water has a size such big that it is not possible to mount it at a long side of the engine.
- the absorber exceeds the space available between engine and engine room wall.
- the invention is based on the task of providing an exhaust gas cooling device and an internal combustion engine which avoid the disadvantages of the known, in particular to propose an EGR cooling device with higher variability for arrangement in order to provide an engine with an on-engine EGR cooling device.
- an exhaust gas cooling device for a large internal combustion engine comprises a precooling jet tube, an outflow tube and an absorber unit.
- the precooling jet tube provides an exhaust gas inlet, whereas the outflow tube provides an exhaust gas outlet.
- the absorber unit is fluidly arranged between the precooling jet tube and the outflow tube.
- Standard tube type cooling absorbers have a diameter of 1-6m.
- the absorber unit has a height, a maximal width, and a maximal length, wherein the maximal length is longer than the maximal width.
- the maximal width is less than 50% of the diameter of comparable standard tube type absorbers.

- the outflow deflector housing is fluidly connected with the absorber unit and with the outflow tube.
- the inflow deflector housing and the outflow deflector housing each are arranged adjacent to the absorber unit.
- the tapered form of the inflow deflector housing allows a homogenous flow of exhaust gas to the flow area of the absorber unit, whereas the tapered form of the outflow deflector housing allows a homogenous flow of exhaust gas from the flow area of the absorber unit. This also applies when the exhaust gas has a low pressure, for example in a low pressure exhaust gas recirculation system.
- Flow area means the cross-sectional area of the absorber unit or of the single absorber, which is perpendicular to the flow direction and through which the exhaust gas flows.
- an asymmetric flow area means a flow area that does not have a circular or quadratic symmetry of the flow area, because the maximal width is smaller than the maximal length.

- the single absorber may comprise a cylindrical shape with a rectangular flow area.
- Single absorbers arranged in parallel may each comprise a cylindrical shape with a circular or a rectangular flow area.
- Single absorbers may have any flow area contour, for example elliptical, as long as the width of the absorber unit is smaller than the lengths of the absorber unit.
- a rectangular flow area provides a larger area content of the flow area within the absorber unit.
- a circular or elliptic flow area provides for a better pressure resistance, which may be needed in case of a misfiring event in the cylinder, when the pressure may rise up to 0.5bar in the cooler.
- the absorber unit in particular each single absorber, may comprise cooling layers. Cooling layers may comprise rolled sheets or strips of stainless steel which are provided as bulk material. Stainless steel typically resists any aggressive pollutants which may be contained in the exhaust gas.

- the precooling jet tube has a J-shape to direct the exhaust gas and to guide the cooling water.
- the precooling jet tube as well as the outflow tube typically have a circular cross section.
- the diameter preferably is equal to the width of the absorber unit.
- the open diameter of the tapered inflow deflector housing decreases along the flow path of the exhaust gas, such that the pressure remains more or less constant along the length of the absorber unit, while more and more exhaust leaves the inflow deflector housing to the absorber unit.
- a similar amount of exhaust gas may be guided to each of the parallel single absorbers.
- the open diameter of the tapered outflow deflector housing decreases against the flow path of the exhaust gas or increases along the flow path of the exhaust gas.

- the spray nozzle produces a water shower like rain with droplets having a diameter of 1-2mm.

- Cooling water from the precooling jet tube and from the absorber unit may be collected in the inflow deflector housing and may be guided to the cooling water return line.
- the cooling water return line may be fluidly connected to a circulation water tank. Circulated water may be brought to an adequate temperature, in particular may be cooled, and/or may be cleaned and may be used again as cooling water in the precooling jet tube and/or in the absorber unit.
