Motor vehicle e.g. passenger car, has control device connected with navigation device for operating thermo-mechanical transducer to activate transducer depending on actual vehicle position determined by navigation device

The vehicle (1) has an internal combustion engine (2), and a thermo-mechanical transducer (3) generating of mechanical drive power by heat energy arising in operation of the internal combustion engine. A control device (16) operates the transducer, and a navigation device (17) determines a position...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The vehicle (1) has an internal combustion engine (2), and a thermo-mechanical transducer (3) generating of mechanical drive power by heat energy arising in operation of the internal combustion engine. A control device (16) operates the transducer, and a navigation device (17) determines a position of the vehicle. The control device is connected with the navigation device for operating the transducer to activate the transducer depending on the actual vehicle position when the vehicle probably covers a distance due to the position and/or a route computed by the navigation device. Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Kraftfahrzeug (1) mit einer Brennkraftmaschine (2), mit einem thermomechanischen Wandler (3) zum Generieren von mechanischer Antriebsleistung mittels im Betrieb der Brennkraftmaschine (2) anfallender Wärmeenergie und mit einer Steuereinrichtung (16) zum Betreiben des thermomechanischen Wandlers (3). Eine ökologische und ökonomische Verbesserung lässt sich erreichen, wenn die Steuereinrichtung (16) mit einer Navigationseinrichtung (17) zur Positionsbestimmung des Fahrzeugs (1) gekoppelt ist und derart ausgestaltet ist, dass sie den thermomechanischen Wandler (3) in Abhängigkeit der Fahrzeugposition aktiviert.
