Performance evaluation of low-pressure turbine, turbo-compounding and air-Brayton cycle as engine waste heat recovery method

This paper presents an equivalent comparison of waste heat recovery method on an internal combustion engine using low-pressure turbine (LPT), turbo compound (TC) & air-Brayton cycle (ABC). A 5.9 L, six cylinders turbocharged diesel engine is used for this case study. All recovery methods are sim...
