Abstract :
The sustainable development energy strategy in China is a low carbon energy strategy. Based on it, several new schemes about energy-saving of air-conditioned train are discussed in this article. Such as: change the existing air-flow organization in the air-conditioning system; using the plate-fin heat exchangers to pre-treat the fresh air; according to the change of outdoor weather conditions, effectively adjust the air-conditioning system.
