- Summary:
- AC system provides the human comfort inside the cabin of a vehicle but at the expense of consumption of energy from the vehicle. On a global perspective for the bus segment, there is an increased demand for cooling in tropical countries. Optimization needs to be done in existing AC systems w.r.t packaging, cost and performance constraints. Major elements contributing to heat ingress are engine hood, front firewall, windshield and side glasses and bus body parts. Due to these reasons inadequate passenger comfort and poor cool down performance of the vehicle is observed.This paper refers to the reduction of heat ingress through different DOE (Design of Experiment) in the area of design and validation for duct and vent layout, insulation, glass and paint technology, evaporator blowers. The new duct design has been evaluated using a CFD tool by varying various parameters to generate desired output. The integrated use of the modifications was found significant improvement at vehicle level
