A review of waste heat recovery on two-stroke IC engine aboard ships

摘要

Different types of waste heat recovery technologies available onboard ships have been discussed from the perspective of technical principle and application feasibility. Study of basic principle, novel methods, existing designs, theoretical and experimental analyses, economics and feasibility are discussed in this paper. The primary focus of this paper is to provide a better understanding of the options available for waste heat recovery and using in various applications onboard ocean-going ships to improve fuel economy and environmental compliance.
