Around 300,000 refrigerator trucks with auxiliary power units are on the road in the United States, according to a 2013 estimate. [3] In recent years, truck and fuel cell manufacturers have teamed up to create, test and demonstrate a fuel cell APU that eliminates nearly all emissions [4] and uses diesel fuel more efficiently.
The first German jet engines built during the Second World War used a mechanical APU starting system designed by the German engineer Norbert Riedel.It consisted of a 10 horsepower (7.5 kW) two-stroke flat engine, which for the Junkers Jumo 004 design was hidden in the engine nose cone, essentially functioning as a pioneering example of an auxiliary power unit for starting a jet engine.
AI-9 The base model which is used to supply compressed air to air-start systems.It can also be used as cabin heating if necessary. [1]AI-9V A variant of the base model that is used to supply compressed air to air-start systems and air conditioning.
A Honeywell GTCP36-150(CX) auxiliary power unit mounted in the tail of a Cessna Model 750 Citation X. Honeywell auxiliary power units are a series of gas turbine auxiliary power units (APU) made by Honeywell Aerospace. Honeywell started manufacturing APUs in the early 1950s and since then they can be found on many aircraft. [1]
The electric variant has a Bosch-sourced eAxle drive unit [92] and a 94 kW-hr lithium-ion battery using nickel-manganese-cobalt chemistry. [2]: Table 3-1.3 The eAxle drive unit is a traction motor with an integrated reduction gearbox and inverter. The permanent magnet AC traction motor has a peak output of 150 kW (200 hp) and a continuous ...
The vehicle also contains a two-stroke diesel-powered auxiliary power unit that can power all non-automotive energy requirements on the Field Artillery Ammunition Supply Vehicle and on the howitzer when a slave cable is used to connect the two. This reduces fuel consumption when mobility is not required.
The first production FFV was completed as the "USPS Carrier Route Vehicle" on December 17, 1999. [4] The initial contract for 10,000 FFVs was completed in September 2000. [5] The per-unit cost of the FFV in 2001 was US$20,537 (equivalent to $35,300 in 2023), [3]: 12 and the final total order was for 21,275 FFVs, delivered in 2000 and 2001. [6]
