Fuel consumption- and emission analysis of exhaust heat recovery systems

thesis
posted on 2013-07-01, 00:00 authored by F Will
The study examined waste heat recovery systems for combustion engines. Emission tests with a real vehicle showed that fuel consumption and CO2 emissions can be reduced by over 7% for the official certification drive cycle through direct heat transfer from the exhaust gas to the engine oil.
