GB-London: T1164-02 - The Future of HVAC refrigerant systems for rail vehicles

This research will establish the feasibility of changes to refrigerants and/or HVAC systems used in rail vehicles, leading to documented guidance that will inform industry decision making. The research should also determine whether current rail standards require clarification to accommodate the use of new gases. The objectives of this work include: •determining the availability and cost of candidate refrigerants, particularly those used in other modes of transport; •compiling the costs of adapting existing HVAC...
