Waste heat recovery unit for motor-vehicle drive with internal combustion engine, has motor-driven side and output side cooling circuit that is connected to thermodynamic circuit to assist condensation of working medium

摘要

The waste heat recovery unit (2) has a thermodynamic circuit (3) that provides a liquid working fluid in an evaporator (4) and performs evaporation of waste heat in an expansion machine (5) during operation of the internal combustion engine. The motor-driven side and output side cooling circuit (10) is connected to the thermodynamic circuit to assist the condensation of the working medium.
