Global Aircraft Air Conditioning System Market – Introduction
- Aircraft air conditioning system is used to provide the aircraft with cold and hot air during the loading process on the ground. The system helps maintain convenient temperature for passengers.
- Aircraft air conditioning unit’s air moves through one or two underbelly-connected hoses. There are two types of air conditioning systems for aircraft: warm cycle air conditioning and vapor cycle air conditioning. The warm cycle air conditioning system is primarily used in turbine-powered aircraft engine, while the vapor cycle air conditioning unit is used in reciprocating aircraft engines.
Key Drivers and Restraints of Global Aircraft Air Conditioning System Market
