Abstract |
|
Current paper shows the experimental results of the variations in the temperature inside an automobile cabin when it’s parked under the sunlight. When an automobile is parked without any shaded over it, so there’s a continuous heat accumulation through Windshields, Glass windows, roof and doors. Heat has no other space to move out of the cabin except a minor infiltration due to leakages if any in the body, and internal heat is trapped due to sunlight. An automobile kept in direct sunlight faces this problem of overheating of inside ambient air due to sunlight. Further, heat is also absorbed by the interiors increases the temperature of the cabin and cabin eventually turns up into a ‘Green House’ where heat is trapped inside and keeps accumulating resulting in the increased temperature of the cabin environment. |
