MUMBAI, India, Oct. 26 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611112713 A) filed by Hcl Technologies Limited on September 19, 2026, for Method And System For Managing Window-Induced Energy Losses In A Vehicle.

Inventors include S. Karthik; and R Srinivasan.

The application for the patent was published on October 23, 2026, under issue no. 43/2026.

Abstract: A system (104) and method (200) for managing window-induced energy losses in a vehicle (102) is disclosed. The method (200) includes determining, by one or more processors (108), an open-window condition and retrieving a plurality of vehicle operating attributes associated with the open-window condition. Determining a routing score to classify the open-window condition as an intentional open-window condition or an unintentional open-window condition. Selectively assigning the open- window condition to one of an active processing mode and a passive monitoring mode. In response to assignment of the open-window condition to the active processing mode, constructing a vehicle-specific closed-window baseline energy map, retrieving a reference energy consumption value, determining the window-induced energy deviation, determining a cabin comfort condition, and initiating a corrective action based on at least one of the window-induced energy deviation or the cabin comfort condition.
