Device for energy recovery from exhaust stream of internal combustion engine in vehicle, has working medium that is guided in closed joule-cyclic process in waste heat recovery device

摘要

The device (1) has a working medium (AM) that is guided in a closed joule-cyclic process in a waste heat recovery device (3). An electric machine (15) is mechanically coupled with an internal combustion engine (2). The electric machine and the internal combustion engine occur in interaction such that the electric machine acts as a starter or as a generator on the internal combustion engine.
