Abstract
A HVAC system for a vehicle has a condenser, an evaporator, a compressor, a variable accumulator comprising a piston and an actuator, and a control system operatively connected to the actuator. Fluid flows in a circuit from the condenser, to the evaporator, to the compressor, and to the condenser. The variable accumulator is arranged between the evaporator and the compressor. The control system operates the actuator to displace the piston to alter at least one characteristic of the HVAC system.
