These figures will be announced during the first quarter of 2015. We then multiplied the sources of electrical energy for power units by adding solar panels and installing an exhaust gas heat energy recovery system based on the Rankine cycle. Waste heat recovery. and distributes it in real time.

Common Rail injection reduces the generation of particles, while exhaust-gas recirculation (EGR) reduces NO x. This improves the exhaust gas values across a wide speed range. The recovered energy is stored in a Li-ion battery with a capacity of about 3.8 The two-stage turbocharging optimizes engine tuning in the Euro 6 version.

Researchers at the University of Manchester (UK) have developed a graphene-based nano-rectifier (“ballistic rectifier”) that can convert waste heat to electricity. In 2015, Dr. Song and his colleagues reported the development a graphene-based ballistic-rectifier. 2015) Bottom: Illustration of graphene-based ballistic rectifier.

At an event in Sacramento, California, Volvo Trucks announced that it will commercialize dimethyl ether (DME)-powered heavy-duty commercial vehicles in North America, with limited production beginning in 2015. Unlike LNG, it does not require cryogenic temperatures; it is handled and stored like propane, with tank pressures of only 75 psi (vs.
