Combustion road vehicles and Engine exhaust recovery

Energy flows from combustion road vehicles to engine exhaust recovery; energy flows from engine exhaust recovery to combustion road vehicles.

Combustion road vehicles (energy) and Engine exhaust recovery (energy): 2 relationships.

How they are linked

1. Energy flow

Physical flow · 65% of flow · Combustion road vehicles → Engine exhaust recovery

Turbochargers reuse exhaust energy.

  • 65% of Combustion road vehicles's energy goes this way

2. Energy flow

Physical flow · 77% of flow · Engine exhaust recovery → Combustion road vehicles

Turbocharged engines get more power from less fuel.

  • 77% of Engine exhaust recovery's energy goes this way
