Abstract
According to the present invention, when target temperatures of air blown out toward a first and a second air conditioning zones are equal, a target opening degree of a second air mixing door is set to an actual opening degree of a first air mixing door. In this way, the second air mixing door is located at a deviated position in the range of -4-+4 (%) from the actual position of the first air mixing door. Thus, a relative positional deviation between the respective air mixing doors becomes 4 (%) even at maximum, which is approximately half as compared with a conventional value. Accordingly, temperatures of air blown out toward the first and second air conditioning zones can be substantially the same, and a comfortable temperature control independently for the right and left seats can be realized.
