Abstract: A refrigeration arrangement for traction vehicles includes a first closed circuit configured as a compression refrigeration machine containing a refrigerant as a first carrier medium, evaporator and condenser. The evaporator absorbs heat into the first circuit. The condenser transfers heat from the first circuit. The first circuit is coupled, via the evaporator, to a closed second circuit containing a liquid second carrier medium for heat transport. The second circuit, for cooling, takes heat and transfers it to the second carrier medium. The heat is conveyed, by the second carrier medium, to the evaporator for transfer to the first circuit. The first circuit is coupled, via the condenser, to a closed third circuit containing a liquid third carrier medium for heat transport. The third circuit causes heat from the first circuit, transferred into the third circuit by the condenser, to be transferred to surroundings with heat from traction systems.

Abstract: An air duct system for vehicles, in particular for passenger rail vehicles, has at least one roof venting duct, which has a component venting duct for warm air and a component venting duct for cold-air. A separating means which is arranged inside the roof venting duct is designed so it can be deformed or is held in a movable fashion in such a way that the cross section of each of the two component venting ducts can be enlarged by making the respective other component venting duct smaller. These changes in cross section are brought about solely by the air pressure and volume flow conditions without external energy.
