About bus air conditioners

[mrtgrnl]

Hello everybody!
This is my first post in this useful forum.
Im a mechanical engineering student from Turkey.This is my last term and i have to write thesis.My thesis' subject is "Heat gain,thermodynamic and cost analysis of a bus air conditioner systems".
I have searched in the internet and also in this forum,but i couldnt find any well-enough material or article specially about bus air conditioners.
So if you guys will help me for it ,i would be very pleased..Thank you very much..

You should be able to get generic calculations about heat gain from windows and humans (alive ones) from the net.
This is about much heat gain as a bus gets. Apart from the door opening and the odd raunchy couple in the back seats...lol
