Abstract:
Electric turbo compounding (ETC) emerges as a pivotal energy recovery solution, seamlessly combining an advanced turbocharger with a high-speed generator to harvest electrical energy from exhaust gas dynamics. This research delves into the practical application of ETC in vehicles, employing a comprehensive approach blending simulation techniques with experimental validation. The investigative process involves meticulous data collection on vehicle muffler dimensions, subsequent device modelling based on this data, and rigorous flow simulations, followed by thorough analysis. The study's key findings highlight a noteworthy 9% increase in engine back pressure at 850 rpm, counterbalanced by a 7% reduction at 2000 rpm. Despite the integration of the ETC mechanism, electric current measurements remain consistently within the range of 1.4 to 1.6 amperes at 1200-2000 rpm. This research not only unveils the tangible effects of ETC on engine performance but also underscores its viability as an efficient energy recovery solution in the automotive sector, setting the stage for advancements in sustainable transportation.
