Research in Automotive HVAC
 

Hi,

it is a bit off-topic, off-cfd-topics, but maybe some of you work in the automotive air conditioning area. I am looking for institutes with special research in automotive hvac. Does anyone have an idea?

Greetings! Fab

Fab,

Take a look at the SAE (www.sae.org) website & look for links to research institutions supporting the automotive industry. You could also take a look at a few of their papers to get some direction.

A new (re-entrant) area that may be of interest is that of using CO2 as a refrigerant fluid. This is at pretty high pressure & may provide soem interesting cfd research areas.

Best of success.
