In electric vehicles, air-conditioning (AC) units and electric heaters have been used for dehumidifying and heating the … cabin. However, the air heating process in the electric heater causes higher power consumption due to a lower air … temperature entering the electric heater from the sensible cooling in the humidifying process. In this study, a heat pump (HP) and …
