Abstract
Abstract 1. A method of using the exhaust heat of an internal combustion engine wherein a thermodynamic expansion machine whose working medium is heated by the engine exhaust heat and is physically separate from the engine exhaust gases drives an electricity generator, characterised in that a synchronous machine (18) having an unwound rotor (17) and delivering its output to at least one converting means (25-28) is used as generator and at least one electric motor (31, 32 respectively) adapted to relieve the load on the engine is connected to the converting means or to one of the converting means.
