  • Abstract
    APPLICATION of air conditioning to passenger cars has required development of considerable equipment, including axle generators of larger capacity, a suitable generator drive, a light weight compressor for operation with Freon, and a system which would stand the severe service met in railway operation. The exacting requirements of weight and space added greatly to the difficulty.
