Traditionally, only 25 to 30% of energy is begin utilized to run the vehicle and accessories mounted on the engine and left amount of energy is wasted in various ways likes in the form of exhaust and cooling of engine component. It converts the chemical energy into thermal energy and in the form of pressure of air carrying the heat, piston movement is done. Almost every type of internal combustion engine work on the principle of heat engine. Which senses the temperature inside the cabin continuously and TEG is operated whenever needed.Ĭurrently, a great deal of the automotive industry's R&D effort is focused on improving overall vehicle efficiency.

These TEG modules are given power supply from the solar energy extracted and the operation is controlled by a control circuit. It utilizes the TEG (thermo electric generators) to provide the cooling inside the cabin. This utilizes the solar power extracted using a solar panel and given a separate storage space to power a system which controls the temperature inside the cabin. Here the system implements an effective system to maintain an ambient temperature inside the cabin even when the engine is turned off.

So for maintaining the ambient temperature inside the cabin the engine have to be operated just to provide the ambient temperature. While considering the case of an automobile for example a car being parked outside in the sun, the temperature will gradually increase and humans cannot afford to be in such high temperatures. The day to day increase in the atmospheric temperature leads to the need for better cooling as well as the energy systems.
