D.6 Climate Control System and <strong>Cost</strong> Summary Overview<br />

D.6.1 Climate Control Hardware Overview<br />

The HEV technology configuration drove both a heating and defrosting, and<br />

refrigeration/air conditioning, subsystem change. An auxiliary water pump was added for<br />

the heating and defrosting subsystem to maintain hot coolant flow through the heater core<br />

during ICE shutdown mode. In the refrigeration/air conditioning subsystem, an electric<br />

compressor is required to maintain cool air flow in the passenger compartment during<br />

ICE shutdown mode. Beyond the compressor there is little to no difference in plumbing<br />

of the refrigerant lines. The condensers and evaporators are found to be the same on both<br />

vehicles and are excluded from the analysis.<br />

D.6.1.1 Heating Defrosting Subsystem<br />

The Fusion HEV auxiliary coolant pumping subsystem contains an auxiliary water pump<br />

(shown in Figure D-59) mounting bracket, electrical jumper harness, and additional<br />

coolant lines/hardware required to splice into conventional engine coolant pumping<br />

system.<br />
