HVAC Systems
A vehicle’s HVAC system is a complex and vital automotive component responsible for heating and cooling the vehicle interior, along with defrosting and providing acceptable indoor air quality. Brannieke has experience in providing Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) solutions for various automotive OEM and Tier-1 suppliers. These includes design development, engineering via Computational Fluid Analysis (CFD), ergonomic and comfort research, and development of advanced features to improve efficiency. How HVAC System Works A vehicle climate control has several different functions. In most vehicles, the HVAC system is integrated with the vehicle cooling system and directs the coolant through the HVAC system where it goes through series of evaporators and heat exchangers. Blower motors then direct air through the various air conditioning ducts into the passenger cabin. The vehicle’s climate control system must be capable of cooling the interior cabin and maintain a comfortable temperature even in the most extreme conditions. Interior cooling is a function of the HVAC’s condenser and evaporator. Similar in function to a refrigerator, the evaporator and condenser unit in a car chills the outside air to about 3-5 degrees Celsius before being directed into the vehicle interior cabin via the blower motor and series of air ducts. |
