Abstract
A vehicle air conditioner includes a cooling heat exchanger arranged in a casing, a compressor control portion which controls a compressor such that a cooling temperature at the cooling heat exchanger approaches a target cooling temperature, and a dryness determination portion which determines whether an outer surface of the cooing heat exchanger is dry or not based on a humidity in the casing. A target temperature determination portion determines the target cooling temperature to be any one of target temperatures including a first target temperature that is lower than a dew-point temperature in the casing, when the dryness determination portion determines that the cooling heat exchanger is not dry. The target temperature determination portion determines the target cooling temperature to be any one of the target temperatures other than the first target temperature, when the dryness determination portion determines that the cooling heat exchanger is dry.
