Ce dispositif est équipé d'un radiateur destiné à refroidir un réfrigérant de moteur, d'un système à cycle de Rankine qui comprend un échangeur thermique pour récupérer la chaleur résiduelle du moteur dans un liquide de refroidissement, un détendeur pour produire de l'énergie à l'aide du liquide de refroidissement, un condenseur pour condenser le liquide de refroidissement et une pompe à liquide de refroidissement alimentant l'échangeur thermique en liquide de refroidissement, le condenseur et le radiateur étant positionnés dans l'ordre du côté amont dans le sens de l'écoulement d'air, ainsi que d'un mécanisme d'entraînement destiné à entraîner la pompe à liquide de refroidissement. Le dispositif de récupération de chaleur résiduelle est également équipé d'un des éléments suivants : un moyen de limitation de plage de fonctionnement servant à limiter la plage de fonctionnement du moteur lorsqu'une anomalie de la pompe à liquide de refroidissement se produit dans la plage de non-fonctionnement du système Rankine, un moyen de limitation de la puissance maximale du moteur servant à limiter la puissance maximale du moteur lorsqu'une anomalie de la pompe à liquide de refroidissement se produit dans la plage de non-fonctionnement du système Rankine et un moyen de limitation de la vitesse maximale du véhicule servant à limiter la vitesse maximale du véhicule lorsqu'une anomalie de la pompe à liquide de refroidissement se produit dans la plage de non-fonctionnement du système Rankine.
