Abstract
An automotive climate control system is disclosed. As long as an ignition switch is off, a bypass ( ) is closed (in this state, a ratio between warm air and cool air is a maximum when the automotive climate control system is activated.), the blowout is set to defrost mode and the introduced air is set to external air mode regardless of the preceding modes of blowout and introduced air (when the ignition switch is on). As a result, the refrigerant leaking from an evaporator ( ) flows to an external air inlet ( ) smaller in air resistance. Even in the case where the ignition switch is off, therefore, the leaking refrigerant is prevented from flowing into the cabin.
