Motorization system for propelling e.g. trawler, has energy converter transforming part/entire heat energy dissipated by heat engine into mechanical energy to drive alternator, and constituted of stirling engine

摘要

The system has a heat engine (10) e.g. internal combustion engine, and battery elements (14) e.g. group of batteries, rechargeable by an alternator (13), and an electrical motor (11) supplied with electrical energy by the battery elements. An energy converter transforms part or entire heat energy dissipated by the heat engine into mechanical energy to drive the alternator. The converter is constituted of a stirling engine (15) whose head is heated by calories issued from the heat energy.
