The work proposes an improved combined power supply system for forest transport machines, consisting of a small-power electromagnetic generator and a thermoelectric generator, which will increase the efficiency and environmental friendliness of the machines used in the forest complex. The global and domestic modern scientific potential is tuned to solve an urgent problem, namely: the use of new technologies to obtain nanomaterials. The result of the use of new materials is the development and implementation of highly efficient energy-saving systems [1].
When designing modern forest transport machines, elements of modern electronics, energy, communication systems, heating and air conditioning are widely used, where polymer materials (PM) are widely used. Especially often they are used in the form of gaskets, films, coatings and adhesive layers. Harsh operating conditions for timber transport quite often require the use of PM products with special properties (increased thermal conductivity) while maintaining mechanical characteristics [2].
As you know, environmental requirements for vehicles of any kind are increasing every year. One of the ways to improve environmental friendliness is to increase profitability, and this is possible with the modernization of forest transport machines, in particular, through the use of energy-saving technologies, which undoubtedly include the use of a thermoelectric generator as a power source for the onboard network of a forest transport machine.
