Air Conditioning Blower Motor

air conditioning

air conditioner: a system that keeps air cool and dry
A system for controlling the humidity, ventilation, and temperature in a building or vehicle, typically to maintain a cool atmosphere in warm conditions
(Air-conditioned) buses fares cost a little over four times the fare of an ‘Ordinary’ route covering the same distance. Those buses have route numbers starting with A.
An Original Equipment or Aftermarket accessory system that cools and dries the incoming passenger compartment air. Aka: a/c

blower motor

A small electric motor that attaches to, and turns the blower wheel.
An electric motor with a fan designed to supply a current of air at a moderate pressure. A blower usually consists of a fan assembly, a motor, and a suitable case. The blower case is usually designed as part of the heating/air conditioning system.

Grandpa,me and the 69 KENWORTH aka Red-Baron-Kenworth

This is the only surviving photo of the Red-Baron Kenworth as i called it when i was 5. This was taken in 1975 on my birthday I was holding up a toy truck and a toy fork-lift i had gotten. This was my favorite truck of my grandfathers it had a 318 Detroit with a polished blower/chrome valve covers, oil pan and chromed thermostat housings. The transmission was a cable shift married box 4×4 it had new way air-ride. IT had factory air conditioning and a unheard of at the time black and white tv in the sleeper. The reason i still remember all this is because i could recite this particular truck’s spec’s when i was 4. My grandfather sold me this truck for 3 dollars on this day, a few years later my father bought it from my grandfather on the terms that the money would go in to a college fund for me.

This 318 did not leak oil other than the air box drain tubes like they are supposed to. The motor went down 6 years later with about 800,000 miles on it in Denver Co. Stewart-Stevenson over-hauled it and it LEAKED from then on. My father sold the truck in 1983 to C.W.Layton of Weatherford Texas who put a cowboy in it hauling hay out of NM he rolled the truck on Cloud-Croft. The head-ache rack that you can barly make out in this picture was designed by my grandfather is what saved the guys life.

British Thompson Heuston 'ZP' load bank

The inner workings of a ‘ ZP’ Type resistor form load bank.

For those who wish to know, its 15 resistance grids of approximately 0.495 ohms each, stacked one above each other with a large D.C motor and fan blowing cooling air from the bottom up.

A variable load can be configured, by altering the positions of the knife switches, prior to load testing.

This ZP form would give up to 15 different steps ( resistance values)
and once configured you then connect your output to it.

In our case a Class 33 generator.

Once connected, you can then fully load test your locomotive, simulating heavy load conditions
stood still, without going out on the mainline.

The resistance grids heat up, and the blower motor, connected in circuit, blows the heat up and out through the roof of the wagon its mounted in……if you put the roof up Mr Rice !

This single bank was capable of anything up to a ‘Type 3′ locomotive, for anything larger, just add more grids and configure according to need.

See my previous picture of 33113 on a ZP

"Norman…..dont forget to put the roof up"
