MAHLE Waste Heat Recovery

[@ericlotze7724]

Seems like a great system, does it convert the heat into electrical, hydraulic, or drive shaft mechanical energy?

[@ericlotze7724]

Will these systems ever be small enough for trucks/large cars/vans or will those only be able to support coolant heating systems?

[@sizeable_paladin]

Is this system available for the United States trucking market yet? What's your timetable for possible usa availability

What temperatures can be existed in the outlet exhaust gas. In other wires what is the temperature drop for the exhaust gas (inlet exhaust gas temperature and outlet exhaust gas temperature).

[@beverley8987]

just something more that can break down

[@tolgayasa2793]

Is it working based on organic rankine cycle? What about the engine power range?

Just came for 90's porn music.. thanks

[@pablodiablo765]

in northern canada, most communities use diesel piston engines for electricity generation. What percentage of energy could we expect to recover in that application?

[@Ludwigs_Pendler]

10%

[@Ludwigs_Pendler]

but it takes weights

[@N330AA]

Could this work on a small 20kw Genset?

What is the benefits of this technique...

[@MAHLEGroup]

Hi Latest, by using the exhaust energy, the fuel consumption of Heavy Duty Commercial Vehicles can be reduced by 3 - 5% for longhaul applications. Kind regards

[@getsensevideos7159]

Can this be applied to gasoline engine cars?

[@luckyluke5638]

It can yeah, but I don't think the extra complexity isn't worth it for small vehicles

[@getsensevideos7159]

@@luckyluke5638 Thanks a lot. However, at what truck speed (km/hr) can the expander starts to generate power?

[@luckyluke5638]

@@getsensevideos7159 Oh I think I didn't express myself well. In theory, such a system could be made for cars. But I believe the one presented here is specially made for heavy duty equipment. It would require some downsizing for it to be effective with a car's small engine. When it comes to the speed where it kicks in I don't think it's really a matter of speed but more a matter of engine load. Don't quote me on that though, it's best to have the actual manufacturer respond to these technically specific questions.

[@getsensevideos7159]

​@@luckyluke5638Okay, thanks. I did a simulation and start observing output at around 60km/hr. I thought it could be confirmed from your end

[@luckyluke5638]

@@getsensevideos7159 Sadly I can't confirm it, sorry about that

[@nacikorkmazer4935]

Is it possible to apply for the wheel loader or excavators which working in wood (MDF) factory

[@MAHLEGroup]

What do you mean exactly Naci Korkmazer?

[@nacikorkmazer4935]

It is clear. we think use your system on our loaders for the fuel consumption productivity

[@mikeburns4115]

What is this music? Also, great video, very exciting.

[@MAHLEGroup]

Thank you, we will ask our supplier.

At least it's not the same two kickstarter free songs...
