A vortex mixing system mixes intake air with exhaust gases for exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) in an internal combustion engine. The vortex mixing system may have a vortex mixing device connected to an intake air conduit, a supply conduit, and an EGR conduit. The vortex mixing device may have a plenum disposed around a mixing conduit, which is connected to the intake air conduit and the supply conduit. The plenum is connected to one or more cross conduits and to the EGR conduit. The cross conduits extend across a mixing chamber formed by the mixing conduit. The cross conduits generate one or more vortices in the intake air. Each cross conduit has one or more outlets. The cross conduits direct the exhaust gases through the outlets into the vortices. The exhaust gases mix with the intake air in the vortices.
