The present study was intended to estimate the fuel savings for a Diesel-Rankine compound engine in comparison to a Diesel engine with the same output (206 kW) for a European route and to estimate its profitability. The working fluid for the Rankine bottoming cycle was Fluorinol-50. The adiabatic Diesel engine with bottoming cycle was also included in these considerations as the theoretical limit. The fuel consumption for a 38 t long haul tractor/trailer vehicle was calculated for a route profile corresponding to the route Rotterdam-Verona on the basis of the calculated output and fuel consumption graphs for the compound engines and the Diesel engine.
