With the rapid changing environment and atmospheric effect, the air conditioning of the moving vehicle has become a necessity. In the same time consumers are incapable to bear the increasing operating cost of the vehicles due to continuous raise in fuel prices, component costs and maintenance costs associated with vehicles. Approximately 30 to 40% of total energy supplied in internal combustion engine (ICE) is converted to useful mechanical work. The remaining energy is expelled directly to the environment through engine cooling systems and exhaust gases resulting into entropy rise and serious environmental problems. Exhaust gas stream from ICE carries away about 30% of the heat of the combustion. An exploration has been done to research the possibility of waste heat recovery and its subsequent utilization in air conditioning system of a vehicle without increasing the component cost, weight, number of component and bring improvement in vehicle by making it luxurious.
