Abstract:
The use of fossil fuels in an internal combustion engine results in the release of CO2 gasses to thenatmosphere. These CO2 gasses are one of the main causes of global warming. Efforts are being made to improve the efficiency of the internal combustion engine but as it is a relatively mature technology so improvements have already been made. A large quantity of the energy in the fuel used for a car is converted into heat. A large proportion of this heat is present in the exhaust gases. An exhaust heat recovery system that would recover some of this heat and convert it into electricity to charge the car battery. The paper discusses the various ways by which the waste heat from the exhaust can be utilized to reduce the fossil fuel consumption and in turn, indirectly increasing the efficiency of the engine.
