| Research Abstract |
The high efficiency electric using the vibration and heat energy recovery system has been studied. Vibration energy is recovered by the linear generator, and heat energy is recovered by the thermoelectric transducer. Modularization of the thermoelectric transducer is achieved. Numerical analysis of the heat flow is undertaken. And Effective recover method of the heat energy is given. As the generated voltage is low, the proper DC-DC convertor is considered. In the vibration recover system, vibration of the electric vehicle is adapted to the linear generator. Results of the numerical analysis and experiment are given. The appropriate design parameter is defined by the results. Finally design of the thermoelectric transducer and the linear generator to install on the electric vehicle is considered, and these facilities are shown to be loaded on the electric vehicle by the simulation.
