  • Publication number: 20110140551
    Abstract: A heat recovery system includes an electric rotary device, a heat exchanger, a pipe and a reservoir. The electric rotary device has a stator core and a housing. The stator core is wounded with a coil. The heat exchanger provides heat exchanging between first and second heat medium. The first heat medium is in contact with the coil and absorbs heat from the coil. The pipe connects the electric rotary device to the heat exchanger and transfers the first heat medium. The reservoir is formed in the housing and stores the first heat medium. The electric rotary device has an insulative body. The insulative body prevents heat of the first heat medium from being dissipated outside of the housing.

  • Publication number: 20110088394
    Abstract: A waste heat regeneration system for a vehicle having a vehicle engine actuated by a start-stop switch includes Rankine cycle circuit, a motor generator, a by-pass circuit and a control device. The Rankine cycle circuit includes a pump, a boiler heating the heat medium by heat exchanging with waste heat generated by the vehicle engine, an expansion device and a condenser. The by-pass circuit is connected to the Rankine cycle circuit at the upstream and downstream sides of the condenser and the communication of the heat medium is openable and closable therethrough. When the start-stop switch of the vehicle engine is turned off, the control device controls the by-pass circuit to communicate the heat medium therethrough and keeps controlling of the rotational speed of the motor generator until pressure difference between the upstream and downstream of the expansion device is decreased to a predetermined level, and then stops the control.
