Numerical Simulation of Bus Windshield Based on Heat Transfer with Impinging Jets

Article Preview

Abstract:

The maximum vapor fraction in the air decreases with the temperature falling. For the air which has the high humidity, the redundant vapor will condense into fog or freeze into ice if the moist air attained a new saturation in a lower temperature. The buses running in the north cold areas usually face this problem in winter. According to the theory of jet impingement heat transfer, this thesis analyzed the influences of angle between the windshield and impinging jets and also the distance between vents and dashboard edge on defrosting by a simplified bus model. It also put forward some suggestions about defrosting on buses.
