BMW Group Research and Engineering has demonstrated a new technology, referred to as the turbosteamer, which recovers heat normally wasted in an internal combustion engine and converts it to additional power.
Heat is recovered from both the exhaust gas and the cooling water to make steam, with the majority of the heat coming from the exhaust. The steam is then expanded to produce the power which is input to the drive shaft of the engine.
