The best possible thermal and mechanical energy management is necessary to have more
efficient and less pollutant means of transport. This can be accomplished recovering part of …

Efficiency of internal combustion engines can be improved indirectly using a waste heat
recovery system. Thermoelectric generators (TEGs) are employed to convert thermal energy …

It is well known that internal combustion engines have approximately 30% thermal
efficiency, and the remaining energy is lost as heat through both exhaust gas and coolant …

Automotive engines reject a considerable amount of energy to the ambience through the
exhaust gas. Significant reduction of engine fuel consumption could be attained by …

This study was devoted to investigating the energy utilization of a thermoelectric generator
(TEG). Key factors governing the power generation characteristics of the TEG—the power …

Thermoelectric generator (TEG) has drawn significant for the waste heat recovery systems.
In this study, a prototype has been developed for the working principle suitable to the …

Abstract Analysis of the energy balance for an exhaust system of a diesel engine fit with an
automotive thermoelectric generator (ATEG) of our own design has been carried out. A …

The waste heat recovery performance of a thermoelectric generator (TEG) was
experimentally investigated. Forty customized thermoelectric modules (TEMs) were installed …

With the current emphasis on electrified vehicles, the use of internal combustion engines
(ICEs) as the main propulsion source is challenged, especially for passenger cars. Even …

In light-duty internal combustion engines, approximately only the third part of the fuel energy
consumed is converted to effective mechanical work. Since waste energy through the …
