Abstract
A refuse vehicle includes a chassis, a body assembly coupled to the chassis, and a thermal stress mitigation system. The body assembly defines a refuse compartment. The thermal stress mitigation system is configured to mitigate against a thermal stress on the refuse vehicle. The thermal stress mitigation system includes a thermal stress mitigation substance, at least one of a container and a tank, one or more nozzles, a controller, one or more thermal sensors. The controller is structured to receive thermal stress data from the sensors, determine whether the thermal stress is greater than a threshold thermal stress based on the thermal stress data from the sensors, and operate the nozzles to deploy the thermal stress mitigation substance on the refuse vehicle responsive to determining that the thermal stress is greater than the threshold thermal stress.
