This paper presents the results of a study of a gas engine heat recovery system in terms of efficient use of the energy contained in the fuel, with the study performed determining the most efficient variant of gas engine operation. A comparison between the manufacturer’s data and the performance results was also made. Simulations performed on the system model allowed the optimum engine load range to be determined. The results of the analyses also indicated which variant of the engine heat recovery system is the most effective.
