Experimental investigations of an automotive heat pump prototype for military, suv and compact cars.

Author(s) : GIANNAVOLA M. S., MURPHY R., YIN J. M., et al.

Summary

The article presents the results of the experiments conducted on a prototype R744 (CO2) system operating in a heat pump mode within the supercritical region. The prototype system was sized for a compact car, but these experiments were conducted to provide baseline for scale-up to sport utility vehicle size. In the article, data presented are for a limited range of operation. Further optimization and extension of operating range is underway. Development of such systems seems very promising.
