Full Vehicle Environmental Performance Test Chamber is a specialized facility designed for comprehensive testing of gasoline and electric vehicles under controlled environmental conditions. It evaluates vehicle HVAC systems, defrost/defogging performance, thermal management, and overall environmental behavior. The chamber is compatible with chassis dynamometers (roller type) for integrated vehicle testing, providing accurate data for research, development, and performance analysis.
The Full Vehicle Environmental Performance Test Chamber is applicable across a range of vehicle performance evaluation scenarios, including:
Vehicle HVAC and Thermal Management Testing
Evaluation of air conditioning, heating, defrosting, and demisting efficiency
Thermal comfort assessment for driver and passenger compartments
Emission and Air Quality Testing
Measurement of in-cabin pollutants and VOC concentrations
Analysis of temperature-dependent emission characteristics
Road Simulation and Performance Analysis
Coupled with roller-type chassis dynamometers to simulate driving conditions
Testing fuel consumption, energy efficiency, and climate control performance
The chamber conforms to multiple national and international standards, including:
(1) GB 18352.6-2016 – Limits and measurement methods for light vehicle pollutants
(2) GB/T 27630-2011 – Guidelines for passenger car interior air quality assessment
(3) QC/T 658-2009 – Road test methods for automotive air conditioning system performance
(4) GB/T 12535-2021 – Vehicle starting performance test methods
(5) GB/T 12542-2020 – Road test methods for vehicle thermal balance capabilities
(6) GB/T 2423 – Environmental testing methods for high/low temperature, humidity, and thermal cycling
(7) ISO 12219-1 – Road vehicles – Interior air – Test methods for volatile organic compounds in complete vehicles
(8) DIN 75220 – Sunlight simulation aging tests for automotive components
(9) SAE J1711 – Recommended procedures for hybrid vehicle fuel economy and emission measurements
(10) PV 3938 – Evaluation methods for automotive interior odor
