Original Abstract

The article presents new trends in automobile air-conditioning, and their comparison. The attention is focused on the control system in automobile air-conditioning. Additionally, the attention is paid to physiologically controlled air-conditioning. In order to reach an optimum microclimate, thermal comfort sensors or various sets of sensors are utilized to measure, constantly during the run, temperatures, velocities and humidity of air, as well as a heat flow from solar radiation. Based on the obtained data, the control system evaluates optimum temperatures and adjusts them automatically. Besides that, the control also uses different sensors of outdoor air pollution and controls switching of outdoor and indoor air circulation according to the measured concentrations. The article also concerns zone air-conditioning systems enabling air-conditioning in more zones. A perspective four zones air-conditioning system can ensure an optimum microclimate for every passenger in the automobile.
