A heat pump system for a vehicle is configured by including a valve, a first cooling apparatus, a second cooling apparatus, and a flow control line, to be configured for adjusting a temperature of a battery module by use of a single chiller where a refrigerant and a coolant are heat-exchanged, selectively recollecting waste heat of the electrical component and the battery module and using the same for heating of the vehicle interior, and forming a plurality of coolant flowing lines by a single valve according to selected mode of the vehicle.

Heat pump system for vehicle

A slim-type heat management system for an electric vehicle is provided. The system includes various heat management modes using a number of parts including at least two three-way expansion valves. The various heat management modes include a heat pump dehumidification mode and a dehumidification max mode, which are for defogging, in addition to an indoor cooling mode, a battery cooling mode, and a heat pump mode for heating.

Slim-type heat management system for electric vehicle

An embodiment compression module for a vehicle includes a compression unit configured to compress a refrigerant introduced into the compression unit, a control unit having a first surface separably assembled to the compression unit to control the compression unit, and an accumulator unit separably mounted on a second surface of the control unit in a direction opposite to the compression unit, the accumulator unit being configured to supply the refrigerant to the compression unit in a gaseous state.

Compression module for vehicle

A control method for a vehicle includes determining whether an internal combustion engine is overheated based on driving information of the vehicle and cooling information of a passenger compartment while the vehicle is driving and an HVAC system is operating in a cooling mode, and controlling an alternator or an actuator of a switching door to reduce a cooling capacity provided by the HVAC system when it is determined that the internal combustion engine is overheated.

Control system and control method for vehicle

A compressor control apparatus and method includes: a sensor configured to detect air conditioner operation state information necessary to control engagement and disengagement of a clutch of an air conditioner compressor; an electromagnetic coil in the clutch of the air conditioner compressor configured to perform clutch engagement upon receiving battery current; a microcomputer configured to determine whether the current air conditioner operation state satisfies a clutch engagement allowance condition or a clutch disengagement condition based on the air conditioner operation state information detected by the sensor and to output an operation signal based on the result of determination; and a switch configured to be turned on or off according to the operation signal output by the microcomputer and to control supply of the battery current to the electromagnetic coil such that clutch engagement or clutch disengagement is performed.

Compressor control apparatus and method

A device for protecting an air conditioning system of a vehicle is configured to prevent damage to an air conditioning system due to excessive operation of a compressor or a deficit of a refrigerant by accurately determining whether to operate the compressor even without using a specific sensor that causes an increase in the manufacturing cost of a vehicle.

Device for protecting an air conditioning system of a vehicle

A switch in accordance with one aspect of the disclosure may include a housing connected to a first contact and configured to be rotatable, an electrode provided on an outer surface of the housing and connectable to a second contact outside the housing by rotation of the housing, a coil provided inside the housing and configured to generate a magnetic force, and a spring provided inside the housing and rotating the housing in response to the magnetic force generated by the coil.

Rotatable switch

An air-conditioner may include an evaporator, a compressor configured to compress refrigerant supplied to the evaporator and a clutch configured to transmit power needed to operate the compressor to the compressor or to prevent power from being supplied to the compressor, wherein the clutch prevents power from being supplied to the compressor when an actual measurement temperature of the evaporator reaches a lower limit threshold temperature selected among the lower limit threshold temperature and an upper limit threshold temperature and the lower limit threshold temperature is changeable, and the upper limit threshold temperature is relatively higher than the lower limit threshold temperature and is changeable.
