Abstract
A vehicle air conditioning system is provided that performs air conditioning for a front row and a rear row by using a heat pump to optimize cooling and heating efficiency, thereby preventing cooling and heating energy from being wasted.
Claims16
A vehicle air conditioning system comprising:
- a compressor that compresses a refrigerant;
- an external heat exchanger that condenses the refrigerant;
- a first air conditioner that includes an internal heat exchanger performing a heat exchange of the refrigerant compressed by the compressor, a first expansion mechanism expanding the refrigerant transferred from the external heat exchanger, and a first evaporator evaporating the refrigerant passing through the first expansion mechanism to provide air-conditioning air to an indoor space of the vehicle;
- and
- a second air conditioner that includes a second expansion mechanism expanding the refrigerant transferred from the external heat exchanger, and a second evaporator evaporating the refrigerant passing through the second expansion mechanism to provide air-conditioning air to the indoor space of the vehicle at a position different from that of the first air conditioner.
