A method for designing a HVAC air handling assembly for a climate control system on a vehicle includes the step of selecting an architecture for the HVAC air handling assembly from a library stored in a memory of a computer system and selecting a HVAC component part from the library. The method also includes the step of generating a HVAC design using the HVAC architecture and the HVAC component part, determining if the HVAC design meets a predetermined criteria, and regenerating the HVAC design if the predetermined criteria is not met. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION Accordingly, the present invention is a method for designing a HVAC air handling assembly for a climate control system on a vehicle. The method includes the step of selecting an architecture for the HVAC air handling assembly from a library stored in a memory of a computer system and selecting a HVAC component part from the library. The method also includes the step of generating a HVAC design using the HVAC architecture and the HVAC component part, determining if the HVAC design meets a predetermined criteria, and regenerating the HVAC assembly design if the predetermined criteria is not met. One advantage of the present invention is that an improved method of designing a HVAC assembly for a climate control system on a vehicle is provided that considerably reduces design time and related expenses. Another advantage of the present invention is that a method of designing a HVAC assembly for a climate control system is provided that considers packaging criteria. Yet another advantage of the present invention is that a method of designing a HVAC assembly for a climate control system is provided that allows further analysis of vehicle packaging feasibility early in the design process. Still another advantage of the present invention is that a method of designing a HVAC assembly for a climate control system is provided which supports computer-aided engineering analysis (CAE) and rapid prototyping. A further advantage of the present invention is that a method of designing a HVAC assembly for a climate control system is provided which enhances informed decision making regarding the design in furtherance of vehicle timing considerations. Yet a further advantage of the present invention is that a method of designing a HVAC assembly for a climate control system is provided that enhances flexibility in climate control system design, while still meeting vehicle timing considerations. Still a further advantage of the present invention is that a method of designing a HVAC assembly for a climate control system is provided that utilizes parametric automated design in light of predetermined criteria
