Abstract

Waste heat recovery from car engine coolant provides an opportunity to significantly improve the overall car engine efficiency. One approach of recovering waste heat is by using thermoelectric power generator with a main component of thermoelectric module. A thermoelectric module is solid state device. It is reliable energy converters and have no noise or vibration as there are no mechanical moving parts. The capability of TEO is proven but the effect of TEO to the performance engine is questioned. In this project, the best location to install the TEO was identified. The next step is to determine the effect on the performance engine with and without using the TEO. Theoretically, the TEO will produce small value of power and torque to the engine after installation. By using the Engine Dyno test, the result from this project will show that the installation of TEO to the engine system are practical or not.
