Journal ArticleDOI
A dynamic model for thermoelectric generator applied to vehicle waste heat recovery
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a dynamic model of TEG system designed for vehicle waste heat recovery, which is made up of counter-flow heat exchangers (HXRs) and commercial thermoelectric modules (TEMs).
Journal ArticleDOI
Comprehensive analysis of thermoelectric generation systems for automotive applications
TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate that a modeling process that makes use of mainstream computational fluid dynamics (CFD) codes is feasible for the TEG design and demonstrate that it can be implemented in an engine test bed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prediction of the fuel economy potential for a skutterudite thermoelectric generator in light-duty vehicle applications
TL;DR: A new approach for predicting the fuel saving potential of a vehicular TEG while also considering integration effects is developed, based on a recently developed high temperature skutterudite thermoelectric modules.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multiobjective process controllability analysis
Yi Cao,Zhijia Yang +1 more
TL;DR: The paper shows that a Pareto-optimal set or a trade-off curve in the performance space can be used for process controllability analysis, and therefore, can be applied to control structure selection problems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterisation, control, and energy management of electrified turbocharged diesel engines
TL;DR: In this article, a framework for characterisation, control, and energy management for an electrified turbocharged diesel engine is proposed, where an electric machine is mounted on the turbine shaft and changes the air system dynamics, so characterisation of the new layout is essential.
