Abstract
An air cycle automotive air conditioning system for providing conditioned air to an automotive passenger compartment ( ) includes an air compressor ( ) tandemed to an expander ( ). The expander ( ) is efficiently run so as to expand air to a very low temperature, sending recovered work back to the compressor ( ). The very cold expander air is then mixed with warmer air from other sources, providing a proper volume flow and temperature of air to the passenger compartment ( ).
