On the optimal design of sliding rotary vane pump for heavy-duty engine cooling systems

Presently the on-the-road transportation sector is responsible of the 21% of the whole CO2 amount emitted into atmosphere. This pushes the International Governments and Organizations to provide strict limitations in terms of ICEs emissions, also introducing fees payment for the car manufacturers. Th...

description Presently the on-the-road transportation sector is responsible of the 21% of the whole CO2 amount emitted into atmosphere.
