Experimental Investigation on Solar Powered Auxiliary Automobile Air Conditioning System

Abstract

This paper is concerned with experimental investigation on solar energy driven automobile vapor compression air conditioning system fitted in the luggage boot as an auxiliary unit not disturbing the engine driven conventional air conditioning system. An array of 150 W solar cells is settled on the roof of the car to continuously charge the 24 V batteries. The 12HP open type compressor, the condenser fan and the evaporator blower are run by the current from the solar energy charged batteries. M. Ashoka | Dr. N. Shenbagavinyagamoorthib | Dr. S.
