Adjustable throat-area expansion valves used in automotive air conditioning systems: A mini review
author
Abstract:
Adjustable throat-area expansion valves (ATAEV) are functioned as area regulator control units. In literatures, there are many expansion valves normally used in automotive air-conditioning systems, as regulator and electrical type valves. Nevertheless, a review study for such issue has not been introduced, according to the best of author knowledge. The present paper presents a review study for expansion valves used in air conditioning of automobiles. Different types of expansion valves are discussed including the working principles and the limitation of their working conditions.

Modeling Adjustable Throat-Area Expansion Valves
Adjustable throat-area expansion valves (ATAEV), including thermostatic and electric expansion valves, are used commonly in air conditioning equipment and lead to improved system performance as compared with the use of fixed orifice expansion devices. However, ATAEV modeling literature is limited. Typically, a TXV is modeled by specifying the superheat entering the compressor or empirically cor...

In this paper, mini-channel type evaporator which is new in mobile air conditioning (MAC) or automotive air conditioning (AAC) systems is thermally modeled. The performance of mini-channel evaporator is also compared with the laminated evaporator which is being currently used in automotive industries. The mini-channel evaporator was constructed of two rows of parallel flow mini-channel tubes...

The goal of this work is to develop a preliminary analysis on the feasibility of using an alternative automotive air conditioning system based on the Brayton cycle, to be assembled using a turbocompression-intercooling system configuration available in the market. The first step of the analysis was a thermodynamic study to define the system capacity and parameters for selecting the system compo...
full textVapor Compression Cycle Control for Automotive Air Conditioning Systems with a Linear Parameter Varying Approach
This paper investigates an output tracking problem for the vapor compression cycle in automotive Air Conditioning (A/C) systems using Linear Parameter Varying (LPV) techniques. Stemming from a recently developed first-principle A/C model, Jacobian linearization is first exploited to develop an LPV-based model that is nonlinearly dependent on time-varying system parameters such as evaporator pre...
full textFault Tolerant Control of Automotive Air Conditioning Systems using a GIMC Structure
Although model-based fault tolerant control (FTC) has become prevalent in various engineering fields, its application to air-conditioning systems is limited due to the lack of controloriented models to characterize the phase change of refrigerant in the vapor compression cycle. The emergence of moving boundary method (MBM) illuminates a promising way for FTC design. In this paper, we exploit a ...
