[EN] Air-conditioning (AC) is an important sub-system in electric vehicles (EVs). AC is responsible for the highest energy consumption among all the auxiliary systems. As the energy is delivered by the batteries, the power ...
The gas-cooler heat exchanger is a characteristic device of the refrigeration plants that use CO2 as the working fluid in transcritical conditions. The proper gas-cooler sizing, allows getting the maximum effectiveness in ...
[EN] The performance of an Internal Heat Exchanger (IHX) operating in a CO 2 transcritical refrigeration plant is analysed, from an energetic point of view, in this work. The evaluation is based on experimental data by ...
