Annual tests conducted in sub-zero winter weather by Norges Automobil-Forbund – the Norwegian Automobile Federation – have found how EV range can fall by between four and 30 per cent, and that ...
We recently ran a 75-mph highway-range test on our long-term Rivian R1T on a very cold, 12-degree day, and its range was 190 miles versus 250 in a moderate temperature, a loss of 60 miles or 24 ...
[9] [20] As per Chen et al., "to overcome this issue, dynamically switchable coatings have been developed to prevent overcooling in winter or cold environments." [19] The detriments of overcooling can be reduced by modulation of PDRCs, harnessing their passive cooling abilities during summer, while modifying them to passively heat during winter.
A cold start is an attempt to start a vehicle's engine when ambient temperatures are much lower than its normal operating temperature. [1] A cold start can be difficult for an engine due to higher viscosity of oil and fuel in cold temperatures.
Winter diesel fuel (also known as winter diesel, alpine diesel, or winterised diesel) refers to diesel fuel enhanced to prevent it from gelling in cold weather conditions. In general it is achieved by treatment with additives that change the low temperature characteristics of the fuel.
Thundersnow, also known as a winter thunderstorm or a thundersnow storm, is a thunderstorm in which snow falls as the primary precipitation instead of rain. It is considered a rare phenomenon. [ 1 ] It typically falls in regions of strong upward motion within the cold sector of an extratropical cyclone .
The heat (or cold) storage medium is the water and the substrate it occupies. Germany's Reichstag building has been both heated and cooled since 1999 with ATES stores, in two aquifers at different depths. [9] In the Netherlands there are well over 1,000 ATES systems, which are now a standard construction option. [10] [11]
