Abstract:
A vehicle air conditioning apparatus is provided that can extend the mileage of a vehicle by reducing the power consumed by the operation of a compressor and a heater. When a required quantity of heating Q_req is acquired, the minimum power sharing ratio between quantity of heat release Q_hpof a water-refrigerant heat exchanger  22  and quantity of heat release Q_htrof a water heater  32  is calculated, which allows the power consumption W_total to be minimized, and a compressor  21  and the water heater  32  are operated based on the result of the calculation.

Claim (Index 2):
The vehicle air conditioning apparatus according to  claim 1 , further comprising:\n a required dehumidification calculation part configured to calculate a required amount of dehumidification based on a temperature and a humidity of the vehicle interior; a dehumidifying capability calculation part configured to calculate a possible amount of dehumidification during the heating and dehumidifying operation; an operation switching part configured to switch the heating and dehumidifying operation to a cooling and dehumidifying operation to release the heat from the refrigerant discharged from the compressor in the heat medium heating radiator and the outdoor heat exchanger and to absorb the heat into the refrigerant after the heat release in the air cooling heat exchanger when the dehumidifying capability calculated by the dehumidifying capability calculation part is lower than the required amount of dehumidification calculated by the required dehumidification calculation part; and a compensation part configured to compensate for an insufficient quantity of heat released from the air heating radiator by switching from the heating and dehumidifying operation to the cooling and dehumidifying operation by the operation switching part.
