Nearly 30 percent of the fuel energy in an internal combustion engine is lost as waste heat in the form of hot exhaust gases. Nowadays it seems clear that the heavy duty manufacturers will implement bottoming Rankine cycles to recover the exhaust heat on their long haul trucks in the 2020s as an answer to future stringent regulations and the still...

Because of environmental issues and the depletion of fossil fuels, the world energy sector is undergoing many changes toward increased sustainability. Among the many fields of research and development, power generation from low-grade heat sources is gaining interest and the organic Rankine cycle (ORC) is seen as one of the most promising technologi...

While nearly 30 percent of the fuel energy is lost as waste heat in the form of hot exhaust gases, exhaust heat recovery promises one of the biggest fuel economy potential regarding the technologies available in the next decade. Applied to heavy commercial vehicles (HCVs), buses or off road vehicles, a bottoming Rankine Cycle (RC) on exhaust heat s...

Presentation of the integration and optimization of a piston expander in a bottoming organic rankine cycle on a heavy duty truck

Presentation of a new technology of piston expander dedicated to waste heat recovery with organic Rankine cycles on heavy duty trucks

While more than 65 percent of the fuel energy is lost as waste heat in the form of hot exhaust gases and cooling water, heat recovery promises one of the biggest fuel economy potential regarding the technologies available in the next 5 years. Applied to trucks, buses or passenger cars, a bottoming Rankine Cycle (RC) on exhaust heat shows a great po...
