Waste Heat Recovery from Automobiles

This paper deals about the waste heat recovery from automobiles using Thermo electric generator (TEG).Waste energy from automotive engine exhaust is converted into electrical energy to power a 12V batter using Thermoelectric Generator. There are three subsystems for this model the thermoelectric generator system, heat exchanger and power conditioning unit. The PCU consists of a buck-boost converter. The simulation results shows boost converter in Power conditioning unit is suitable for Thermoelectric Generator system.
