Introduction It is now accepted that emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG) from human activities are enhancing the global warming effect keeping the earth at a temperature higher than it would otherwise be [1]. In the last twenty years, the world energy consumption has increased by more than 30% [2] despite the adoption by the United Nations on Climate Change of the Kyoto Protocol [3]. Alone, the EU is responsible for around 10% of the global emis- sions of greenhouse gases. Nearly 80% of these emissions come from the production and use of energy and transport [4]. Looking at the situation as it was in 2012 in Europe in terms of GHG emis- sions (Fig. 1a), it can be seen that the transport sector is responsi- ble of about one fifth of these emissions. It is also pointed out by the european commission that ‘‘Heavy-Duty Vehicles (HDV) repre- sent about a quarter of EU road transport CO2 emissions and some 6% of the total EU emissions [5]”. For a long time, the EU has stressed the need to limit global warming to 2 C maximum. However, despite recent improve- ments in fuel consumption efficiency, HDV emissions are still ris- ing, mainly because of the increasing number of vehicles in traffic. Nowadays, HDV are the second-biggest source of CO2 emis- sions within the transport sector, i.e. larger than both international aviation and shipping. As a result, the reduction of the CO2 emis- sions from HDV has become a strategic goal of the EU. ‘‘As part of the EU’s future strategy to address HDV fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, a number of actions can be considered that will result in:  improved vehicle efficiency through new engines, materials and design, ! 2016 Elsevier Ltd.

[5]” A very promising solution is the re-use of the waste heat, which is about 60% of the combustion energy. Transforming this heat in mechanical or electrical energy will enable to increase the overall energy efficiency of the vehicle. Consequently, the fuel consump- tion and the CO2 emissions will be reduced. The heat re-use can be performed by means of a thermody- namic cycle (e.g. organic or non-organic Rankine cycles) using the waste heat as energy source as it is being adopted for large sta- tionary applications. However the adoption of such technology in the automotive domain requires specific R&D activities to identify the most appro- priate system architecture and integration level so to achieve sus- tainable cost and the reliability requirements. Among other, the transient behavior of the engine, the selection of the heat sources, the limited additional heat rejection capacity of the truck, the use of the energy produced by the expansion machine and the impact on the engine of the back pressure caused by the evaporator [6] are as many challenges to overcome during the design of the WHR system. A major part of these research activities is also specially dedi- cated to the selection of the working fluid and of the expansion machine. The working fluid selection process has been widely investigated in several studies [7–11]. For instance, Macian et al. [12] selected R245fa and water for their optimization of a bottom- ing Rankine cycle. Nonetheless no universal optimal fluid is indi- cated since the choice is highly dependent on the target bearings for various oil temperatures and mass flow rates. In order to identify the most suitable fluid for the Waste Heat Recovery (WHR) application, three comparison methods are proposed and discussed based on the measurements. Finally, because the turbine-generator set is the first oil-free prototype developed by the manufacturer, potential sources of improvements are discovered and discussed.
