Harvesting waste heat energy from automobile engine exhaust using teg with heat pipes

This research investigates how the heat from car exhaust pipe line can be recovered as power using passive Thermo electric generator (TEG) using heat pipes. In this research the heat pipes are place on the cold side of TEG to remove the rising temperature and hot side of TEG is placed on the circumf...
