Apparatus and method for controlling compressor of air conditioning device of vehicle

The invention relates to an apparatus and method of controlling the compressor of an air conditioning device of a vehicle. An apparatus for controlling a compressor includes: an operation informationdetector which detects operation information from various sensors according to an operation of a vehicle; a compressor which compresses a refrigerant for operating an air conditioner; and a controllerwhich performs starting acceleration control of momentarily decreasing an operation rate of the compressor, which uses engine power in an acceleration situation of the vehicle, in which the controller stores a first map, in which a starting acceleration entry condition according to a driving pattern and a heat load of the vehicle is defined in a plurality of levels, sets a starting acceleration entry condition having a final level corresponding to the driving pattern according to a starting acceleration entry frequency of a driver for a predetermined unit time within a limited level range ofthe first map, and adjusts
