Which is more fuel efficient when driving and opening air conditioners when driving? Many people will say: Of course, opening the window is more efficient than turning on the air-conditioner. The air-conditioner is always running in oil. Isn't that correct? Next take a quiz look:

Test method, the test route for the fast loop, the entire course is about 100km, without any traffic lights. Time selection starts after 22:30 in the evening, avoids congestion during peak hours and guarantees fair testing. The test vehicle was Chevrolet Aveo 1.4 Manual.

"Opening the window and shutting down the air conditioner" - The air conditioner is completely closed. The window opening method we use is the most common way to open windows in which all four windows are opened. This way can guarantee the heat dissipation in the vehicle and ensure a certain degree of comfort. Not to "trumpet". (Of course, everyone's habits of opening windows are different, and they can't all be simulated).

"Closing windows and opening air conditioners" - The uniform rules of our fast-track fuel consumption test are used: all windows are closed, air conditioning is turned on to the coldest, and air volume is adjusted to 1 block.

In terms of feelings, opening windows on the fast lane of the city in the evening has been able to achieve the desired cooling effect. Normal speed of about 80km/h, conversation will not be disturbed, but in parallel with the big car, side rumbling diesel engine sound is very irritating. And when the speed is approaching 100km/h, if the window is opened for a long time, the occupants of the vehicle will be “injured”. The advantage of closing the window and opening the air conditioning is that the face is less blown and the ears are more clean.

“Closed windows for air conditioning” and “Open windows for air conditioning” Fuel consumption PK results Drive mode Mileage (km) Average speed (km/h) Actual fuelling (L) Actual fuel consumption (L/100km) Window opening and closing air conditioning 104714.9 4.71 OFF Window opening air conditioning 103.9725.66 5.45 Average fuel consumption per 100 km (L/100km) 0.74 (+16%)

In the end, the first round of window opening and closing of the air conditioning test drove a total of 104km, and an external computer showed an average speed of 71km/h. The total fuel consumption was 4.9 liters and the average fuel consumption was calculated to be 4.71L/100km.

At the second round of closing the window to open the air conditioning test, the same driving distance was 104km. The average speed displayed by an external computer was 72km/h. Finally, the cumulative fuel consumption in the second round of tests was 5.66 liters, and the average fuel consumption was calculated to be 5.45L/100km.

The final conclusion is clear: "Opening the window and closing the air conditioner" is more fuel efficient than "closing the window and opening the air conditioner." It should be noted that the real windowing method is so strange that we have no way to simulate it and we cannot come up with the most fuel-efficient windowing method. And this conclusion is only applicable within the range of 100 km/h or less. As for the expressway, driving through the window not only increases the risk but also affects the comfort. We never recommend opening the window, so we have not tested the fuel consumption performance.

It must be pointed out that Ai Wei-Europe is a small-displacement vehicle. The load brought by air-conditioning is relatively large. If the model is replaced with a larger-displacement vehicle, the result will not be ruled out.

Unfortunately, at present, the traffic conditions of first-tier cities that can drive through the windows of everyday traffic are few. Even if it is an expressway or a national road, most of them are dusty. If you encounter a good road condition with less traffic, open the window and turn off the air-conditioning, not only is it fuel-efficient but also pleasant, why not?


Wood pellet complete production line is euipment for making the wood log/wood chips/sawdust/wood shaving/rice husk/stalk/grass...raw material into fuel pellets, Main process: Wood Chipper --hammer mill--biomass dryer--Biomass Pellet Machine--pellet cooler--Pellet Packing Machine.

Wood chipper: make the wood log/wood branches/wood blocks/bamboo... into smaller chips. Finished products: 20-50cm.

Hammer Mill/Crusher: crush the wood chips/wood shaving/small blocks/grass/stalk...to 6-8mm powder. Finished products: 6-8mm.

Rotary Dryer: dry raw material into suitable moisture to produce high-level pellets. Finished moisture: 10-15%
Wood Pellet Machine: press crushed and dry sawdust/rice husk/straw/grass... into pellets. Finished pellets: 6/8/10mm.(Asian Market standard: 8mm; European Market standard: 6mm)

Cooling Machine: cool high-temperature pellets before packing.
Reason: the finished pellets are very hot and realease moisture as they leave the pellet machine. This section can ensure to generate smooth pellets.

Packing Machine: pack pellets into 20-50kg/bag or 1 ton bag. Advantage: easily to be transported to final users' site.
