A ratio between a flow rate of a refrigerant flowing in an air conditioning heat exchanger of an air conditioner of which a blowout port mode is a face mode and a flow rate of a refrigerant flowing in a battery cooling heat exchanger is determined based on a battery temperature. As a result, depending on the battery temperature, air conditioning can be prioritized over battery cooling, and comfort of an occupant can be ensured. On the other hand, the flow rate of the refrigerant flowing in the battery cooling heat exchanger is larger than the flow rate of the refrigerant flowing in the air conditioning heat exchanger of the air conditioner of which the blowout port mode is a mode other than the face mode. As a result, the battery cooling can be prioritized and deterioration of a battery can be suppressed.

A method and system for a responsive climate control interface are disclosed. The climate control interface includes an interactive element further comprised of a climate settings map and a climate setting selector. The climate setting selector can be moved to different locations on the climate settings map in order to select a climate setting with a particular temperature and fan speed. The appearance of both the climate settings map and the climate setting selector can be changed as the climate change selector is moved in order to visually indicate temperature and fan speed settings. The system also includes a haptic feedback module that can convert climate settings into haptic feedback levels.

A vehicle climate system configured to generate a snow effect inside of a vehicle, the vehicle climate system includes: a liquid container configured to contain a liquid for generating artificial snow; an air inlet configured to supply air to the inside of the vehicle for generating artificial snow; and at least a first cooler outlet in fluid communication with the liquid container and the air inlet and configured to output artificial snow inside of the vehicle.

In order to provide a motor vehicle, the roof of which is composed of a transparent material at least in some sections, wherein persons located in the motor vehicle are cooled by means of escaping air, air outlet openings are formed on both sides on opposite roof frame longitudinal segments, in each case in accordance with the number of seat rows. Air lines are provided, which convey air conditioned by at least one present air conditioning system to at least one air outlet opening. Sensors that detect occupancy of the present seats by a person are provided, and a controller for the present air conditioning system is provided, which adjusts an air conditioning system from the number of present air conditioning systems in such a way that an air flow having a predetermined temperature and having a predetermined air outlet speed is applied to an upper region of a person located on a seat.

An open architecture HVAC module is disclosed having a housing defining an air inlet and at least two adjacent air outlets. An evaporator and a heater unit are disposed within the housing. A cold air chamber is defined between the evaporator and heater unit, and a hot air chamber is defined downstream of the heater unit. A partition extends into the cold and hot air chambers from an interior surface of the housing between the two adjacent air outlets. The partition is spaced from the evaporator and heater unit. The partition cooperates with the housing to define a first mixing chamber in fluid communication with the first outlet and a second mixing chamber in fluid communication with the second outlet. A blend valve is disposed in each mixing chambers. The blend valves are configured to selectively direct air flow from the cold and hot air chambers to the air outlets.

A vehicular air conditioning system and a control method thereof are provided. The vehicular air conditioning system includes: a plurality of mode doors configured to switch an air discharge mode in a passenger compartment, the mode doors including a defogging door, a vent door and a floor door; and a mode door air pressure reduction part configured to temporarily reduce an air pressure acting on at least one of the mode doors when the air discharge mode is switched.

An in-vehicle computer includes a computer casing, an electronic component, a fan, and an air duct. The electronic component and the fan are disposed inside the computer casing. An air inlet of the air duct is located outside the computer casing, and an air outlet thereof is toward or connected to the fan. The fan can generate an airflow for dissipating heat from the electronic component. Therein, the computer casing, the fan, and the air duct therefore form a heat dissipating system. A vehicle includes a vehicle cage and the in-vehicle computer. The in-vehicle computer is disposed inside the vehicle cage. The air inlet of the air duct communicates with the interior space of the vehicle cage, so that when the air conditioner of the vehicle is turned on, the fan can draw the cold air from the cockpit space for enhancing the heat dissipation efficiency.
