Abstract
This disclosure discloses a heat pump air-conditioning system and an electric vehicle. The system includes a HVAC assembly, a compressor, and an outdoor heat exchanger. The HVAC assembly includes an indoor condenser, an indoor evaporator, and a damper mechanism. The damper mechanism selectively opens ventilation channels of the indoor condenser and/or the indoor evaporator. An outlet of the compressor communicates to an inlet of the indoor condenser. An outlet of the indoor condenser communicates to an inlet of the outdoor heat exchanger selectively through a first throttle branch or a first through-flow branch. An outlet of the outdoor heat exchanger communicates to an inlet of the indoor evaporator selectively through a second throttle branch or a second through-flow branch. Both an outlet of the indoor evaporator, the outlet of the indoor condenser, and the outlet of the outdoor heat exchanger communicate to an inlet of the compressor.
