THERMALLY INSULATIVE COMPOSITIONS FOR COATING A VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18158737 titled 'THERMALLY INSULATIVE COMPOSITIONS FOR COATING A VEHICLE
Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes a vehicle coating that can be applied to the exterior of various moving vehicles to thermally insulate the interior from the sun's thermal energy.
Key Features and Innovation:
- Provides thermal insulation to the vehicle's interior by reflecting and emitting solar energy.
- Demonstrates low thermal conductivity and high solar reflectance index.
- Suitable for use on vehicles exposed to high vibration and uplift winds.
- Maintains desirable properties with minimal thickness.
Potential Applications: The technology can be used in buses, RVs, delivery trucks, construction vehicles, and train cars to regulate interior temperatures and improve comfort for passengers or cargo.
Problems Solved: The vehicle coating addresses the issue of excessive heat buildup in vehicle interiors due to solar radiation, helping to maintain a comfortable environment inside the vehicle.
Benefits:
- Reduces the need for excessive air conditioning, leading to potential energy savings.
- Enhances passenger or cargo comfort during transportation.
- Increases the overall efficiency and lifespan of the vehicle's interior components.
Commercial Applications: The vehicle coating technology can be utilized in the automotive industry for various types of vehicles to improve energy efficiency, reduce operating costs, and enhance passenger comfort during transportation.
Questions about Vehicle Coating: 1. How does the vehicle coating effectively reduce interior temperatures in vehicles? 2. What are the potential long-term cost savings associated with using this technology in commercial vehicles?
Original Abstract Submitted
A vehicle coating to thermally insulate the vehicle's interior is provided. The vehicle coating may be applied to the exterior (e.g., roof) of any suitable moving vehicle, such as a bus, RV, delivery truck, construction vehicle (e.g., cement mixer), train car. When applied to a vehicle's exterior, the vehicle coating provides the benefit of insulating the vehicle's interior from some of the sun's thermal energy, which would otherwise radiate into the vehicle and increase the interior temperature. The vehicle coating demonstrates advantageous thermal insulation properties (e.g., low thermal conductivity) over a wide range of temperatures and when applied with minimal thickness. The provided vehicle coating demonstrates high reflectance, high emissivity, low thermal conductivity, and high solar reflectance index (SRI), and is suitable for high vibration high uplift winds, which all contribute to its desirable properties for use as a thermally insulating vehicle coating.
