A prototype automotive waste heat recovery system has been fired up on a recently commissioned test rig at the University of Brighton. Libertine expects the results from rig tests to confirm the system’s potential to convert the high grade heat in the exhaust into electrical power, which can contribute to either powertrain or auxiliary loads.

If realized, an efficient, low-temperature TIC could provide a supplementary or an alternative approach to thermoelectric devices for waste heat recovery using low grade waste heat—i.e, from engine exhaust or industrial processes. A basic thermionic converter consists of two electrodes separated by a vacuum or a vapor.

The fundamental challenge is to convert as much of the chemical energy in the fuel, into mechanical energy, as efficiently as possible at the prescribed flow rate. A sole single-stage compressor and single-stage exhaust turbine are used for pressure charging. Conversion efficiency is now the key. Turbocharger. Brake System.

The alternative-fuel car evolved to reduce exhaust emissions and other problems derived from burning fossil fuels. To ignore this potential is wasteful and foolish. It is wasteful and destructive to be burning this versatile molecule; we must stop. by Professor Andrew Alfonso Frank. CTO Efficient Drivetrains Inc.
