Zusammenfassung:Systems and methods for controlling a thermal conditioning system of a vehicle are disclosed. The system services multiple components in a vehicle, including at least one passenger component, such as a first seat and/or a second seat, and at least one auxiliary component, such as a storage enclosure, a first cup holder and/or a second cup holder. The system uses a vapor compression system as the thermal energy source. The control methods prioritize thermal conditioning of one or more of the various components based on one or more thermal criterion and apply component-specific control routines to the thermal conditioning based on that prioritization.
