Experimental Investigation on Air Preheating System Using Waste Heat in Automobile

Abstract

Generating electricity in present there is a shortage of fossil fuel, oil, exhaust gas, etc. An attempt has been made in this project, the exhaust gas is used to rotate the generator and this electrical energy is stored in a battery. It is also good with regard to economic considerations and engine efficiency. Burning of these fuels causes environmental problem like radio activity pollution, global warming etc. So that these (coal, oil, gas) are the limiting resources hence resulting new technology is needed for electricity generation, by using thermoelectric generators to generate power as a most promising technology and environmental free and several advantages in production. Thermoelectric generator can convert directly thermal (heat) energy into electrical energy.
