Abstract: A heat pump system for a vehicle, which makes refrigerant bypass an external heat exchanger and turns off a fan mounted on the external heat exchanger when temperature of the outdoor air is lower than setting temperature and the vehicle enters into an idle state in a heat pump mode, thereby continuously operating the heat pump mode even in the below zero temperature so as to keep heating performance, reducing consumption of electrical power without needing to operate an electric heater, and preventing excessive noise of a fan when the vehicle enters into an idle state in the below zero temperature.

Abstract: A heat pump system for a vehicle delays the change of the direction of a directional valve for a given period of time and then conducts the change of the direction of the directional valve, upon receiving the mode change signal between an air conditioner mode and a heat pump mode, thus preventing the generation of the noise and vibration caused by the differential pressure of a refrigerant.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method for controlling an electromotive compressor in a heat pump system for a vehicle. In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, an unexpected cutoff of a compressor attributable to overload and the generation of noise and vibration attributable to frequent restarts can be prevented by controlling the number of rotations of the compressor within a specific range based on the discharge pressure of the compressor.

Abstract: A method for controlling an intake of an air-conditioner of a vehicle is disclosed. The method includes the a-1) step (S1) at which the main door (220) of the intake (200) opens the outdoor-air inlet port (211) and closes the indoor-air inlet port (212), so that only outdoor air flows into the intake, the b-1) step (S2) of detecting operation of the blower (130), the c-1) step (S3) of determining whether set indoor temperature of the vehicle is predetermined temperature or higher, and the d-1) step (S4) at which the subsidiary door (230) opens the subsidiary indoor-air inlet port (213) so that some indoor air flows into the intake. The method automatically controls the intake of the air-conditioner, thus allowing some indoor air to flow into the intake while outdoor air is flowing into the intake, therefore keeping the indoor temperature of the vehicle pleasant, and enhancing heating efficiency.
