18 Summary - a reversible a/c & heat pump system with R-744 was installed in a city bus - in addition to measurements, a sophisticated simulation model including driving cycle and climate data (Modelica / TIL) has been used to evaluate the thermal behavior of the city bus - the R-744 air-air heat pump system is more efficient than the auxiliary fuel burner - the R-744 a/c system with air-air heat pump system has ecological and economical benefits
