Problems solved by technology

However, in general, since an exhaust heat recovery system integrating various types of exhaust heat recovery devices with each other has not been developed, the ratio of the exhaust heat recovery device to the total volume of the vehicle is too large, and the amount of time used to install the exhaust heat recovery device The number of components (e.g., valves required to switch the flow path of exhaust gas) increases dramatically

Abstract

The present disclosure provides a waste heat recovery system. The system includes: a branch pipe having a branch flow path formed to connect with an exhaust gas source that discharges the exhaust gas. A valve at least partially opens or closes the branch flow paths to selectively introduce exhaust gas into at least one branch flow path. Additionally, the thermoelectric module performs thermoelectric power generation by selectively using waste heat of exhaust gas passing through a prescribed one of the branch flow paths.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application is based on and claims the benefit of priority from Korean Patent Application No. 10-2017-0170439 filed with the Korean Intellectual Property Office on December 12, 2017, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0003] The present disclosure relates to a waste heat recovery system, and more particularly, to a waste heat recovery system that provides an improved and more compact structure. Background technique [0004] In general, waste heat of exhaust gas discharged from an engine of a vehicle is regarded as unnecessary heat, in other words, waste heat has a low utilization value and is discharged into the air. The waste heat of exhaust gas is a large amount of energy, accounting for about 30% of the total calorific value of fuel, and its utilization value gradually increases. Therefore, various types of waste heat recovery devices have been used recently, s...
