摘要: An auxiliary power system for a truck or other heavy duty vehicle. A secondary engine which is smaller than the vehicle's main used to generate heat and electrical power, drive an air conditioning The coolant systems of two engines are interconnected so that when off on, waste from transferred by flowing through water jacket also heater cores in truck's cab sleeper. generator driven provides energy. includes compressor condenser, connections efficiently interconnecting with primary system. permits use small efficient keep warm run variety accessories without having engine.
