Abstract

Temperature changes in the interior of a car may be influenced by changes in the climate. This may also affect the performance of the air conditioning system in car. This research aims to explore the temperature of the inside of an automobile in various locations around Malaysia by employing the On-Road Testing method. The process for this research began with design an on-road testing method to determine the car interior ambient temperature at different location. The location of the present work is divided by three categories, that is city, metropolitan city and highway. The experimental investigation is conducted through on-road testing in three different time which is morning, afternoon, and evening for every location except highway. The data analysis is presented in the form of a two-dimensional line graph that allows for comparison of temperature values across time and place. The study of the ambient indoor temperature is investigated to predict the right value to be set in car climate control system since the different surrounding temperature have an affect towards the performance of the car air conditioning system. The data can then be used as a guideline for drivers to utilise the proper AC system setting for most types of cars with climate control settings in every regions of Malaysia.
