In a modern automobile, the A/C system will use around 4 horsepower (3 kW) of the engine's power, thus increasing fuel consumption of the vehicle. Sustainable automotive air conditioning is the subject of a debate-also known as the Cool War -'about the next-generation refrigerant in car air conditioning, An advocacy group, The Alliance for CO2 Solutions, supports the uptake of carbon dioxide (CO2) as a refrigerant in passenger cars, and the chemical industry is developing new chemical blends. This book presents research advances in automotive AC systems using an interdisciplinary approach combining both thermal science, and automotive engineering. Student, trainee automotive engineers and professionals in all areas of automotive HVAC will find this book useful"-- Back cover. 0aAutomobilesxAir conditioningxMaintenance and repair.  2ddcn0cBKe21h629.2/772iT636akENGm2023  00102ddc4070aCSPCbCSPCcENGd2026-08-19l0oENG 629.2772 T636a 2023p032302r2026-08-20 10:28:05t1-1w2026-08-19yBK  c33020d33020
