A control part controls a first opening-and-closing part to close either one of a first outside air introduction port and a first inside air introduction port when it is determined that outside air introduced from the first outside air introduction port flows into a passenger compartment through the first inside air introduction port, and controls a second opening-and-closing part to close either one of a second outside air introduction port and a second inside air introduction port when it is determined that outside air introduced from the second outside air introduction port flows into the passenger compartment through the second inside air introduction port.

Air-conditioner for vehicle

An air conditioner ECU can set an external air introducing mode and an internal/external air dual mode. Here, the internal/external air dual mode is set by the air conditioner ECU in cases in which the air conditioner ECU judges that there is a warm-up state that is after a start of a heating operation and in which a blow-out temperature of air conditioned wind is in the process of rising, and in cases in which humidity detected by a humidity sensor exceeds a reference humidity that is set in advance.

Vehicle air conditioner

When a predetermined seat air conditioning command is provided to air-condition a predetermined seat, a control part allows conditioned-air to be blown off only from an air outlet air-conditioning the predetermined seat as a control for a predetermined seat state. In the predetermined seat state, when a stop command is provided to stop an air conditioning blower, the control part controls the air conditioning blower to stop sending air, and controls at least one air outlet of a plurality of air outlets into an open state, the at least one air outlet air-conditioning the other seat except the predetermined seat.
