Ventech Showcases Advanced Heating Concept at SAE World Congress in Detroit

DETROIT, April 11 -- Ventech is showcasing its innovative Liquid Heat Generator (LHG) on the Cadillac STS SAE 100 Technology Integration Vehicle at the 2005 Society of Automotive Engineers World Congress from April 11-14 at the Cobo Center in Detroit.

General Motors has selected Ventech as a supplier partner to integrate future automotive technologies into one concept vehicle. The LHG is one of 50 high-tech systems displayed in the Cadillac show car, which was created to demonstrate the synergy of several new applications.

"We're proud to participate with General Motors engineers to examine this application. This engineering exercise gives us the opportunity to showcase the LHG Series 400. It equips future vehicles with comfort in one heating system," said Jeremy Sanger, founder and principle, Ventech LLC.

As a comfort feature, the LHG is an advanced technology that provides close-to-instant heat for the vehicle cabin. With this rapid supplemental heater, drivers will have up to 90-degree air within 90 seconds from initial engine start at sub-zero conditions. By comparison, it can take ten times as long for standard HVAC units running off a gasoline engine to reach the same temperature.

Sanger, an English native from Worcester, United Kingdom, patented his LHG invention in 1997. Since then, he has been testing and demonstrating the product with Detroit-based auto makers on diesel and gasoline powered vehicles. His LHG Series 400 is a ready-made component that easily mounts to the engine as a belt-driven accessory.
