Abstract

This chapter reports the results of an experimental study on the performance of an automotive air-conditioning system with measuring the vapour quality. The experiments were carried out at different refrigerant charges, evaporator air inlet temperatures, condenser water temperatures and compressor speeds. Several parameters were measured, charted and discussed in the following, such as the cooling capacity, the compressor power consumption, the COP, total flow rate, gas flow rate, the vapour quality (R-134a and PAG) at the inlet of the compressor, the pressure at the inlet and outlet of compressor and the pressure at the outlet of the evaporator.
