Experimental Set up of Air Conditioning System in Automobile Using Exhaust Energy

Abstract

The refrigeration units currently used in road transport vehicles are predominantly of the vapour compression refrigeration (VCR) type but this work represents study of air conditioning in automobile based on ammonia water vapour absorption system using hot exhaust gases as an energy source. In the study an experimental set up is designed and fabricated to use low grade heat energy i.e. exhaust gases as input heat to the system.
