This paper on thermo-hygrometric conditions inside buses used for public transport is from the proceedings of 14th international Conference on Urban Transport and the Environment in the 21st Century, which was held in Malta in 2008. The authors used techniques from analysis of the thermo-hygrometric conditions inside trains to understand the conditions inside buses, to maximize the air conditioning system and the installation of the air distribution terminals. They stress that summer is the most important time of the year for thermo-hygrometric conditions inside buses because of the frequent opening of doors, which makes the internal temperature uneven, due to the strong air drafts. The simulation pattern, produced with Airpack 2.1 (Fluent) software, was then validated with a series of measures and used for the analysis of the main issues concerning discomfort. The authors conclude with a discussion of the use of air screened doors that result in a reduction in the heat exchange between the inside and the outside of the air-conditioned bus. This technology transforms the air barrier from a simple separation element to a full system component of thermo-hygrometric control of the internal room. The thermo fluid dynamic results guarantee a significant improvement in thermo-hygrometric comfort for the bus passengers.
