CPULD researchers evaluated packaging for portable AC units

One of the world’s largest manufacturers of major home appliances sponsored a research project for the undergraduate students in our department for the fall semester of 2022. Two students were selected to evaluate various packaging systems used to transport portable AC units thru e-commerce distribution channels. A final report was presented to the sponsor summarizing the findings, giving a theoretical analysis of the packaging systems’ performances, and recommending improvements to the packaging.
