Metal hydride air conditioning of the waste heat of automobile engine coolant driving

摘要

Aiming at developing metal hydride air-conditioning system driven by the waste heat of automobile engine coolant, the principle of metal hydride air-conditioning system was introduced and a hydride pair LaNi4.7Al0.3/LaNi5 was developed working at 363 K/303 K/283 K. the working cycle was described in detail. the values of characteristic parameters of the metal hydrides used in the system were also given.
