定温度が高温側では風量を小さくする。FIG. 6 shows the relationship between the wind speed and the feeling of air flow when air is blown at a flow rate of 150 L / min. To keep the airflow feeling constant, the air volume is increased as the distance increases. Further, since the low-temperature air has a weaker airflow feeling than the high-temperature air, the air volume is increased when the set temperature is low and the air volume is decreased when the set temperature is high.
