Method to exploit the use of wasted heat from vehicle engine cooling system, uses heat to convert into mechanical or electrical energy, employs heat engine based on shape memory alloy
Engine coolant, i.e. hot water, is brought into contact with heat engine (10) components including shape-memory alloy (3). The water is cooled by inducing mechanical movement in the components and rotary parts (1, 2) connected to them. Energy transferred is exploited, especially to drive a pump or an electrical generator. An Independent claim is included for the corresponding equipment and vehicle.
