In Yakutia, when the temperature often drops below minus 50, the number of cars on the street noticeably decreases. Drivers are in an advantageous position, using the so-called “Natashas” – portable garages that cover cars.
And here’s a new invention: scientists at North-Eastern Federal University (NEFU) have patented a device that maintains the optimal temperature regime so that the vehicle can work in the cold. The design of the “warm parking” capsule is easy to assemble and disassemble and eliminates the formation of carbon monoxide thanks to a special heat exchange ventilation plate.
Approval of the installation showed that when using a portable gas heater it is possible to create a positive temperature in the capsule in 45 minutes and plus 15 degrees in 1 hour and 25 minutes.– said in NEFU.
As a fuel, biogas can be used, which can work stably in any frost. Thanks to such a device, any equipment without a garage can withstand a long time in the cold, which is especially important for truck drivers, hunters and fishermen.
