The molecular complexes of a series of electron acceptors of 1,4-benzoquinone (BQ), 2,3,5,6-tetrachloro-1,4-benzoquinone (CHL) and 2,3-dichloro-5,6-dicyano-1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) with 4-aminoacetanilide (ACE) have been investigated using various spectral techniques. The stoichiometry of the complexes was determined by photometric titration method and was found to be 1:1, in all the cases. The results of equilibrium and kinetic studies were performed and the final interaction products were characterized by FT-IR.

Abstract: A quantity of irreversible processes in the engine boundary its capability to attain a highly balanced efficiency. The rapid expansion of
gases inside the cylinder produces high temperature changes, turbulent fluid motions and large heat transfers from the fluid to the piston crown and
cylinder walls. These rapid successions of events happening in the cylinder create increasing exhaust gases with pressures that exceed the atmospheric
level, and they must be released while the gases are still increasing to prepare the cylinder for the following processes. By doing so, the heated gases
produced from the combustion process can be simply channelled through the exhaust valve and manifold. The large amount of energy from the stream of
exhausted gases could theoretically be used for waste heat energy recovery to generate power. Various methods to harness the waste heat to produce power
effectively had ended up in vain. This paper recommends and outfits a thermoelectric waste heat energy recovery system for internal combustion engine
automobiles, including gasoline vehicles and hybrid electric vehicles. The key is to directly change the surface heat energy from automotive waste heat to
electrical energy using a thermoelectric generator (TEG), which is then regulated by a DC–DC Cuk converter to charge a battery using maximum power
point tracking. Hence, the electrical power stored in the battery can be maximized. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed system can
work well under different working conditions, and is promising for automotive industry.
