ABSTRACT:
A method of controlling fogging in vehicles having a reversible HVAC system. First, the method detects if conditions for fogging exist such as moisture or localized coldspots on the inside heat exchanger. Then, the speed of the compressor is gradually increased, causing the discharge temperature of the refrigerant to increase at a controlled rate. As the temperature of the refrigerant increases, the temperature of the inside heat exchanger increases. Moisture that exists on the inside heat exchanger slowly begins to evaporate into the air passing through the heat exchanger into the passenger compartment. The moisture laden air flows through the passenger compartment and exits through door seal cracks and outlet vents to the outside environment. After a predetermined period of time, the moisture on the inside heat exchanger has evaporated, so the compressor speed is increased to its steady-state speed.
