TRANSPORTATION AIR CONDITIONING
Railway Passenger Car Air Conditioning; Streetcar and Trolley Coach Heating and Ventilating; Passenger Bus Air-Conditioning; Automobile Air Conditioning; Aircraft Air Conditioning; Ship Air Conditioning, Heating and Venti lating, Air Conditioned Space Treatment, Systems and Controls
THE principles of air conditioning applying to stores, restaurants, hos pitals, theaters, and homes are applicable to railway passenger cars, passenger buses, automobiles, streetcars, trolley coaches, airplanes and ships. However,- equipment used for mobile applications differs from that used for stationary purposes in that it must meet additional requirements. Equipment must be compact, accessible for quick inspection and servicing, light-weight and unaffected by vibration and impact. Freedom from vi bration which could be transmitted to supporting vehicle and thus to pas sengers, is essential.
RAILWAY PASSENGER CAR AIR CONDITIONING
The railway passenger car represents a very difficult air conditioning problem. Space is strictly limited so that all equipment and ducts must be reduced to minimum size. Electric power ' supply and water supply also are limited. All equipment must withstand severe vibration and shock, and must be very, reliable since servicing points are frequently far apart.
During the heating season it is necessary to heat conventional cars with steam from the locomotive at pressures that may vary from 250 psig to only 5 or 10 psig bn the last car in long trains. Passengers in window seats must sit only a few inches from cold outside walls and windows, and must also be very close to standing radiation installed along sides of cars. Sud den changes in load may be caused by changes in sun, wind, or train move ment. Even in coldest weather, outside doors must be opened frequently.
During the cooling season, the problem is further complicated by a high concentrated internal load due to the passengers. Also, air distribution problems are increased by low ceilings and short air throws.
Heating
The heating of passenger cars is accomplished by using a split system consisting of an overhead air circulating system with heating and cooling coils, and standing radiation (floor heat) along car sides. The floor heaters, which usually consist of finned :.tubing, may be made more efficient by using covers designed to increase gravity air circulation, and to direct the warm air from finned heating surface along'cold outside walls and car windows. In some new cars, wall convector panels are used and extend the full length of the car, with air intakes along the floor and outlets at win dow sill height and at window head height in dead-light panels. The heated panel protects passengers from cold.outside walls, and the chimney effect of the panel duct increases air flow and improves heating surface efficiency.
Floor heat is supplied by introducing steam into an inner tube within a finned tube or by means of a separate steam-to-liquid heat exchanger.
