This document reviews methods of recovering exhaust energy from internal combustion engines using heat pipes. It discusses how heat pipes effectively transfer heat from exhaust gases to a condenser region, enhancing engine thermal performance. The document examines several studies on recovering exhaust waste heat using Rankine cycle systems and heat pipes. These studies found that waste heat recovery can increase engine fuel efficiency by 3-34% and power output by up to 20%, depending on the system and engine operating conditions. Recovering just 6% of exhaust heat energy could result in a 10% reduction in fuel consumption. The document concludes that heat pipe waste heat recovery systems show promising potential but require further research.
PERFORMANCE AND EMISSION CHARACTERISTICS OF BIOGAS –PETROL DUAL FUEL IN SI EN...IAEME Publication
Towards the effort of reducing the dependency on petroleum fuel, one of the solutions is to use gaseous fuel as a partial supplement of liquid petrol fuel. In this experiment, four cylinder SI engine was tested with petrol as a fuel and petrol with partial substitution of biogas as fuel. Different percentages of biogas substitution in petrol were tested like B10 (90% Petrol +10% biogas), B20(80% Petrol +20% Biogas), B40(60%Petrol +40% Biogas). Test was conducted to study and compare the performance, emission and combustion characteristic of the engine for both the modes of engine operation. Biogas production was carried out using kitchen waste as a feedstock. Results clearly revealed that performance of the engine improved with the increases in amount of the gas substitution.

A OVERVIEW OF THE RANKIN CYCLE-BASED HEAT EXCHANGER USED IN INTERNAL COMBUSTI...IAEME Publication
The majority of the heat produced by automobiles, primarily by diesel engines, is squandered in various ways. If this waste heat is collected, it can be applied in a variety of other ways. Recently, increased emphasis has been placed on the global issue of rapid economic growth, a relative energy scarcity, internal combustion engine exhaust waste heat, and environmental degradation. The remaining heat is released into the environment through exhaust gases and engine cooling systems, leading to an increase in entropy and significant environmental pollution, so it is necessary to convert waste heat into useful work. Of the total heat supplied to the engine in the form of fuel, approximately 30 to 40% is converted into useful mechanical work. At 4000 RPM, the exhaust gas temperature is at its highest. So a recovery system is created for a constant RPM of 4000. A shell and tube heat exchanger and a uniflow steam engine connected to the main engine make up the recovery system. By reducing the frictional power at the main engine's power stroke and idle stroke, the linked steam engine increases the efficiency of the main engine. Due to the additional recovery system, the system's initial cost is significant. But over time, the system turns out to be profitable.
The increasingly worldwide problem regarding rapid economy development and a relative shortage of
energy. Out of the total heat supplied to the engine in the form of fuel, approximately, 30 to 40% is converted
into useful mechanical work. With the rapid changing environment and atmospheric effect, the air conditioning
of the moving vehicle has become a necessity. In the same time consumers are incapable to bear the increasing
operating cost of the vehicles due to continuous raise in fuel prices, component costs and maintenance costs
associated with vehicles. Keep in mind in this paper, an exploration has been done to research the possibility of
waste heat recovery and its subsequent utilization in air conditioning system of a vehicle without increasing the
component cost, weight, number of component and bring improvement in vehicle by making luxurious. In this
system the Shell and Tube HE type will be used, designed and developed along with vapour absorption
refrigeration system and is tested for performance.

Simulation of Expansion & Exhaust Process with Delayed Entry Technique Using ...AM Publications
The rapidly increasing worldwide demand for energy and the progressive depletion of fossil fuels has led to an
intensive research for alternative fuels which can be produced on a renewable basis. Hydrogen in the form of energy will
almost certainly be one of the most important energy components of the early next century. Hydrogen is a clean burning and
easily transportable fuel. Most of the pollution problems posed by fossil fuels at present would practically disappear with
Hydrogen since steam is the main product of its combustion. This Paper deals with the modeling of Suction and Compression
Processes for Hydrogen Fuelled S.I.Engine and also describes the safe and backfire free Delayed entry Technique. A four
stroke, Multicylinder, Naturally aspirated, Spark ignition engine, water cooled engine has been used to carrying out of
investigations of Suction Process. The Hydrogen is entered in the cylinder with the help of Delayed Entry Valve. This work
discusses the insight of suction process because during this process only air and Hydrogen enters in to cylinder, which after
combustion provides power. Simulation is the process of designing a model of a real system and conduction experiment with it,
for the purpose of understanding the behavior of the design. The advent of computers and the possibilities of performing
numerical experiments may provide new way of designing S.I.Engine. In fact stronger interaction between Engine Modelers,
Designers and Experimenters may results in improved engine design in the not-to-distant future. A computer Programme is
developed for analysis of suction and Compression processes. The parameter considered in computation includes engine speed,
compression ratio, ignition timing, fuel-air ratio and heat transfer. The results of computational exercise are discussed in the

CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!

Abstract: - Heat pipe is a very effective heat transfer
device. Due to high heat transfer capacity it becomes
very effective device for absorbing heat from exhaust
gases in the evaporator region and transported the
heat to the condenser region where the vapor
condenses to release the heat to cooling media. Heat
pipe technology has found increasing application in
enhancing the thermal performance of Internal
Combustion Engine by utilizing the Waste Heat of
Exhaust gases.
Keywords: - Internal Combustion Engine, Waste heat
recovery, Heat pipe, Exhaust Gas.
I. INTRODUCTION
Efficient energy saving vehicle is needed for combating
problems arising due to the increase in the exhaust
emission and limited availability of gasoline. Now-a-days
the sustainable vehicle developments are focused on four
topics: emission legislation and control, new fuels,
improved combustion and a range of advanced concepts
for energy saving. [2]. Among various advanced concepts,
Waste Heat Recovery System for Internal Combustion
(IC) engines has been proved to not just bring measurable
advantages for reducing fuel consumption but also
increase engine power output (power density) or
downsizing, further reducing CO2 and other harmful
exhaust emissions correspondingly[3]. Vazaquez et al.
predicted that if 6% of the heat contained in the exhaust
gases were converted to electric power, 10% reduction of
fuel consumption can be achieved [4]. Early researches on
Waste Heat Recovery have investigated the basic
concepts, problems and expected improvements for such a
system. An example could be found from the research
conducted by Chammas and Clodic [5], who presented the
advantages offered by a Rankine Cycle (RC) system
designed for hybrid vehicles. Up to 18% improvement in
fuel economy could be achieved when water was used to
recover the waste heat from exhaust gases. In Comparison
to the conventional system of waste heat recovery of
exhaust gases by turbocharger which is normally having
15% fuel saving and significant power increase, Rankine
cycle can have more about 20% of fuel saving and similar
power increase [6]. Although Rankine Cycle Waste Heat
Recovery system has higher manufacturing cost, it does
not increase the back pressure of exhaust gas and it can be
installed after turbocharger to regenerate further exhaust
energy which turbocharger is unable to absorb. Some
reports show that how further investigation of the
technology and architectures are possible [7]. For instance,
Teng et al. carried out a series of experiments [8-10] on
heavy-duty diesel engines to estimate the potential of
Waste Heat Recovery, with hybrid energy systems
combined the exhaust system with the charge air cooler
and Exhaust energy recovery cooler(s). Their results show
that up to 20% increase in the engine power and about
25% improvement in fuel savings over the ESC 13-mode
test could be achieved by the Waste Heat Recovery
system. Ringler et al. [11] selected two basic Waste Heat
Recovery configurations: one just with exhaust gas only
and another with exhaust gas plus coolant from various
Rankine cycle layouts for a detailed evaluation of heat
recovery based on a four-cylinder IC engine. Their
experimental works indicate that waste heat recovery can
produce an improvement in power output of about 10% at
typical highway cruising speeds. Weerasinghe et al. [6]
identified the substantial potential of Waste Heat Recovery
for IC engines via two most promising and technically
sound technologies: turbo-compounding and exhaust heat
secondary fluid power cycles. Their results show that the
two Waste Heat recovery technologies would contribute
more power output in the order of 4.1%-7.8% and fuel
savings by 2%-22%. Various researches suggest that over
20% improvement in fuel economy can be achieved from
Waste Heat Recovery. In this paper, the study has been
focused on the exhaust energy from a light-duty gasoline
engine with the objective of exploring the available
recoverable energy in exhaust gas. While the exhaust gas
temperature and mass flow rate vary with engine operating
conditions, the available exhaust energy for a steam
Rankine cycle Waste Heat Recovery system and its
characteristics under different engine operating conditions
will be studied and then the optimal operating areas for
utilizing the exhaust gas energy is identified.

II. LITERATURE REVIEW
In 2012, Tianyou Wang used the EER system based on
Rankine cycle. The schematic diagram is shown in figure1
[1]. And the observation reveals following facts:
The flow rate of working fluid plays vital role for
controlling the steam outlet pressure and overheat
degree. For achieving required overheat and steam
pressure, the flow rate must be carefully adjusted in
case the working condition of engine changes.
The flow rate has also significant influence on the heat
exchanger efficiency. For achieving better heat transfer
efficiency, the flow rate should be as high as possible.
It was found that EER system based on the light-duty
test engine could increase the engine fuel conversion
efficiency up to 14%, though under general vehicle
operating conditions it was just between 3% and 8%.
Although the heat exchanger can increase the exhaust
back pressure slightly, the total fuel saving could be up
to 34% under 2000 rpm and 75 Nm.

In 2015, Tushar Tiwatane and Shivprakash Barve used
heat pipe heat exchanger and different nano-fluids to
recover waste heat from exhaust gases and suggested that
[12]:
The manufacture of lightweight heat pipes is a very
important objective for current heat pipe industries and
researchers.
For developing nano-fluids for a wide range of heat
transfer applications the understanding of the
fundamentals of heat transfer and wall friction is very
important.
Heat transfer performance in a straight circular tube is
amplified by suspension of hybrid nanoparticles in
comparison with that of pure water. The average
increase in Nusselt number for hybrid Nano fluid is
10.94% when compared to pure water.
In 2000, Ngy Srun AP used Exhaust gas heat recovery
system for Exhaust Gas Recovery cooling and heating
passenger compartment [13]. The schematic diagram is
shown in figure 2. He observed that the exhaust heat
exchange coefficient in a pipe of internal combustion
engine expressed by the Nusselt-Reynolds correlation is
Two times greater than the conventional Colburn
correlation at the steady state conditions for low
Reynolds number (Rd < 2 000).
At high Reynolds number (20 000) both correlations
have approximately the same values.
This simple correlation allows calculating and
designing the exhaust-coolant heat exchangers for NOx
reduction and improvement of passenger compartment,
heating for Turbo-Diesel with Direct Injection and
Gasoline Direct Injection engines.

circuit for passenger compartment heating application
III. CONCLUSION
From the review it can be concluded that: It is proven
beyond all doubts by researchers through their
experiments that a considerable amount of heat is wasted
in Internal Combustion (I.C.) Engines. More research is
needed in Heat Recovery (HR) System design keeping
practical aspects in view. Among all the available methods
the Heat pipe heat recovery system is most efficient.
The Heat pipe Waste Heat Recovery System should be
implemented in different field such as chimney of food
processing unit, locomotives etc.
