Abstract

In spite of the increase of the concern on electric vehicles (which is called green cars) and electrically driven automotive air conditioning system, the conventional automotive air conditioning system for internal combustion engines has been still investigated widely due to the realistic consideration. This paper is intended to include many automotive air conditioning system articles published in 1997 to 2013. This review, although extensive cannot include every paper; some selection is necessary. Reviewed papers herein are related to the research and development on effective design and performance improvement for the automotive air conditioning system and components, including theoretical, numerical, analytical and experimental works. Therefore, a number of published articles about the automotive air conditioning system, which contain the belt-driven compressors, heat exchangers and refrigerants, were considered. Many researches have focused on improving the efficiency of automotive air conditioning system to decrease the usage rate of the internal combustion engines.
