Abstract

In this paper, the exothermic distribution of fuel was studied detailedly through conducting thermal equilibrium experiment when the vehicle gasoline engine was at different working conditions. Considering the characteristic of the exhaust temperature of the vehicle gasoline engine, the Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) was adopted for the exhaust recovery. The thermodynamic parameter and thermodynamic performance of the main state points in the ORC were theoretically calculated via computer program. The optimal parameter was determined. On this basis, the organic working fluids were selected. In the last part, a new thermodynamic cycle configuration which can be used to recover the heat from exhaust gas, cooling water and lubricant of vehicle gasoline engine was put forward and introduced.
