ABSTRACT:
A climate control system for an electric vehicle includes a programmed microcomputer for controlling the pre-conditioning of the vehicle prior to usage as well as heating, ventilating and air conditioning of the vehicle under normal operating conditions. The microcomputer responds to a plurality of vehicle operator inputs and sensor inputs and provides outputs to control the speed of the compressor, condenser fan and blower fan, and the position of a temperature blend door and a Fresh Air/Recirculating Air door to optimize the use of electrical energy.
