exhaust heat into electricity
General Motors is now being intensively developed technology for automotive fuel consumption efficiency more after receiving funding from the Government of the United States. Changing the exhaust heat into electricity is one technology that is still in the research and expected to be used commercially.
Hybrid car can take advantage of the energy, stored or used directly. Even the cars that still use the motor fuel or conventional engines, used directly as a source of energy to operate the air conditioner, audio and other equipment.
We have not been many who use the engine heat is wasted through the exhaust pipe and left it alone. Convert it into electrical energy is the way that is considered the most practical and possible commercially produced.
Also described other benefits, electric power generated, can be used in hybrid cars as a source of activator. Can even be used as a substitute for conventional alternator for the engine – a motor fuel. To get the electricity no longer need to charge the engine power produced. The name “shape memory alloy (SMA) is a metal mixture (alloy) is expected, with this concept immediately headed to the prototype stage that can generate electricity.
