Second International Conference on Emerging Trends in Engineering and Technology‚ ICETET-09 Adsorption Air-Conditioning (AdAC) for Automobiles Using Waste Heat Recovered from Exhaust Gases A C Deshpande‚ R M Pillai Abstract- According to a cautious estimate‚ approximately 10% of the energy available at the crankshaft in a diesel operated vehicle is used for operating the compressor of the vehicle’s air-conditioning system. This is a huge loss if one takes into account the fact that the thermal

III. INTRODUCTION Humidification is an operation involving transfer of materials between a pure liquid phase and a fixed gas‚ which is nearly insoluble in the liquid. The liquid contains only one component; hence there are no concentration gradients and no resistance to mass transfer. However‚ it involves both heat and mass transfer that are influencing each other. Humidification operations are mostly applied to air-water systems. To get data for a definite air-water mixture‚ a humidity chart

Introduction Achieving a satisfactory comfort level for pilot and passengers is a primary goal when developing any aircraft environmental control system. Methods to meet this goal will differ depending on the size of aircraft‚ due to the changing volume of airflow there several way for air condition system for a aircraft. The best choice for small aircraft vapour cycle cooling system(VCCS) been used. Vapour cycle refrigeration is the predominant means of air-conditioning in small - and medium-size

Energy Efficient Building Windows Energy efficient windows have multiple layers of glass. The reason for this is because the more layers of glass you have the better it insulates the house. Three or four layers of glass are one of the best because you have more airspace in between layers. A smaller airspace doesn’t insulate the building as well as a thicker airspace would. The thickest an airspace should be is 1 inch because any thicker than that will cause the glass of the window
