Problems solved by technology

[0007] However, when a heating system such as a PTC heater is used to heat the interior air of an electric vehicle powered by electric energy stored in a battery, the electric power of the battery is consumed and thus the driving distance of the vehicle is reduced
Also, in the case of fuel cell electric vehicles, excessive power consumption for heating the interior of the vehicle can also reduce fuel efficiency

Abstract

The present invention provides an air conditioning system for an electric vehicle and a method for controlling the same in which heat generated from a drive motor during vehicle running is used to assist the heating of a vehicle interior so as to provide more efficient heating of the vehicle interior and, especially, reduce the amount of battery power consumed for the heating of the vehicle interior, thus increasing driving distance and improving fuel efficiency. The air conditioning system of the invention can cool the drive motor, heat the vehicle interior using waste heat of the drive motor, and purify the air supplied to the vehicle interior with the use of a single blower. For this purpose, the present invention provides an air conditioning system for an electric vehicle, the air conditioning system including: a blower for blowing air; a drive motor configured to receive the air blown by the blower; an air purification system for purifying the air blown by the blower and supply the purified air to a vehicle interior; a second valve for supplying the air blown by the blower to the drive motor and the air purification system, respectively; and a third valve for supplying the air passing through the drive motor to the outside of the vehicle or to the air purification system, wherein the air passing in turn through the drive motor and the air purification system is supplied to the vehicle interior, thus heating the vehicle interior.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure generally relates to air conditioning systems for electric vehicles. More particularly, the present invention relates to an air conditioning system for an electric vehicle and a method for controlling the same, which can provide efficient heating of the interior of an electric vehicle driven by electric energy, and in particular, can reduce the energy consumed for heating the interior of the vehicle. The amount of battery power that increases driving range and improves fuel efficiency. Background technique [0002] Gasoline engines and diesel engines consuming fossil fuels have certain problems such as environmental pollution due to exhaust gas, global warming due to carbon dioxide, respiratory diseases due to increase in ozone, and the like. Moreover, since the amount of fossil fuels left on the earth is limited, it will be exhausted in the near future. [0003] Therefore, various types of electric vehicles such as electric ve...
