An automatic air conditioning system for automotive vehicles including discharge outlets for discharging conditioned air comprises a plurality of louvers utilizing a number of fins, a discharge outlet actuator for controlling the fins, and a controller for determining that the environmental conditions of the vehiclular cabin are in either, a cool-down state wherein a cabin temperature in the vehicular cabin is excessively higher than a target cabin temperature, a steady state wherein the cabin temperature is essentially equal to the target cabin temperature, or a transient state between the cool-down state and the steady state. The controller controls the discharge outlet actuator so as to vary the discharge mode of the conditioned air discharged from the discharge outlets in one of three discharge modes in response to the environmental conditions. The controller controls the discharge mode such that the occupant in the vehicular cabin can feel suitably cool under the environmental conditions in the vehicular cabin which is momentarily changed.

An automatic air conditioning system for automotive vehicles having at least one discharge outlet to discharge conditioned air therethrough comprising: sensor means for monitoring the environmental condition of said vehicular cabin for producing a sensor signal indicative thereof; variable means associated with said discharge outlet for varying the discharge mode of the conditioned air discharged therefrom, said variable means being operable in a first discharge mode wherein said conditioned air is concentratedly discharged to an occupant of said vehicular cabin, a second discharge mode wherein said conditioned air is discharged in a manner so as to be diffused to all regions within said vehicular cabin, and a third discharge mode wherein said conditioned air is oscillatingly discharged to said occupant; and discharge control means deriving a control value indicative of a heat demand on the basis of said sensor signal and a target temperature in said vehicular cabin, said discharge control means operating said variable means at said first discharge mode when said control value is within the range of a first predetermined values satisfying a first environmental condition, at said second discharge mode when said control value is within the range of a second predetermined values satisfying a second environmental condition, and at said third discharge mode when said control value is within the range of a third predetermined values satisfying a third environmental condition.
