    Abstract: An air conditioner for a vehicle includes a pump that draws and discharges a heat medium, a cooler core that exchanges sensible heat between the heat medium and ventilation air into a vehicle interior to cool and dehumidify the ventilation air, a heat-medium and outside-air heat exchanger that exchanges sensible heat between the heat medium and outside air, a compressor adapted to draw and discharge a refrigerant in a refrigeration cycle, a heat-medium cooling heat exchanger that cools the heat medium by exchanging heat between a low-pressure side refrigerant in the refrigeration cycle and the heat medium, and first and second switching valves that switch between a first dehumidification mode for circulation of the heat medium between the cooler core and the heat-medium cooling heat exchanger and a second dehumidification mode for circulation of the heat medium between the cooler core and the heat-medium and outside-air heat exchanger.

    Abstract: An air conditioner includes: a heat-medium air heat exchanger that exchanges sensible heat between a heat medium having a temperature adjusted by the heat-medium temperature adjuster and ventilation air blowing to a space to be air-conditioned; a heat transfer portion having a flow path through which the heat medium circulates to transfer heat with the heat medium having the temperature adjusted by the heat-medium temperature adjuster; a large-inner-diameter pipe that forms a heat-medium flow path between the heat-medium temperature adjuster and the heat transfer portion; and a small-inner-diameter pipe that forms a heat-medium flow path between the heat-medium temperature adjuster and the heat-medium air heat exchanger. The small-inner-diameter pipe has small inner diameters ϕH and ϕC, compared to the large-inner-diameter pipe.

    Abstract: An expansion valve includes: a partition member shaped in a cylindrical tubular form and receiving a rotor; a case placed at an outside of the partition member and having a cylindrical tubular portion coaxial with the partition member; an O-ring placed between the cylindrical tubular portion and the partition member; a bracket having a body-side portion extending in a direction parallel to an axial direction of the partition member and securely fastened to a body, and a case-side portion extending in a direction different from the axial direction and installed to the case; and a fastener member securely fastening the bracket to the body through the body-side portion. The case and the bracket form an enabler structure that is configured to enable movement of the bracket relative to the case in a fastening direction in which the bracket is fastened to the body by the fastener member.

    Abstract: A thermal management system for a vehicle includes an engine cooling circuit that causes a heat medium to circulate through an engine, and an engine radiator that exchanges heat between the heat medium in the engine cooling circuit and outside air. The thermal management system for a vehicle further includes a switching device that switches between an independent mode in which the heat medium circulates respectively independently through a cooler cooling circuit and the engine cooling circuit, and a communication mode in which the cooler cooling circuit and the engine cooling circuit communicate with each other to cause the heat medium to flow between a chiller and the engine radiator; and a controller that controls an operation of the switching device to switch to the communication mode when a temperature of the heat medium in the engine cooling circuit is lower than a first heat-medium temperature.

    Abstract: An air conditioner for a vehicle includes a first heat exchanger that exchanges heat between a refrigerant in a refrigeration cycle and a heat medium, a second heat exchanger that exchanges heat between air to be blown into a vehicle interior space and the heat medium, and a casing disposed in the vehicle interior space to form an air passage through which the air flows and to accommodate the second heat exchanger. The first heat exchanger is disposed under the casing, and a partition wall for partitioning an engine room from the vehicle interior space is interposed between the first heat exchanger and the casing.
