FIELD: power industry.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a conversion system of thermal energy to mechanical energy in a vehicle. The system includes a pipeline circuit, a pump for pumping of a substance in the pipeline circuit, at least one evaporator, in which a provision is made for absorption by the substance of thermal energy from a heat source so that it is evaporated, a turbine that can be brought into movement by means of the evaporated substance to generate mechanical energy, and a condenser design, in which emission by the substance of thermal energy is provided so that it is condensed. The condenser design includes the first condenser in which the substance releases thermal energy to a coolant that circulates in the above pipeline circuit, and the second condenser that is located at the outlet of the first condenser in relation to direction of the substance flow in the pipeline circuit, and in which the substance releases thermal energy to air at ambient temperature.
EFFECT: invention allows improving conversion efficiency.
