Abstract

In recent years more energy demand and environmental pollution rapidly comes into vital role in our nation. Most of the energy lost in the diesel engine exhausts around 30–40 percent and pollution also more. This literature review present the different geometries adopted in the existing diesel engine setup to extract the waste heat energy and thermal performance of waste heat recovery system for theoretical and experimental analysis to be study in the presented.
