width modulation (PWM). By switching very fast between 0 <strong>an</strong>d 12 Volt the device is<br />
able to make the f<strong>an</strong> “see” different voltages depending on the pulse width. The result<br />
is a very energy efficient, continuous control. It is, however, more expensive due to the<br />
required electronics.<br />

Fresh air <strong>an</strong>d recirculated air are mixed at the recirculation flap. The resulting<br />
inlet air (subscript 3, see Figure 3.6) has the following properties:<br />

The same equations are valid after the air mix flap where warm air coming from the heat<br />
exch<strong>an</strong>ger <strong>an</strong>d cool air coming directly from the evaporator are mixed. The humidity <strong>of</strong><br />
the air streams is equal in this case (� ��� � � ��� � � ���).<br />
3.2.3 Dehumidification<br />
Dehumidification happens in the evaporator if the air becomes colder th<strong>an</strong> the dew point<br />
temperature (see Figure 2.1). This process is shown in Figure 3.7 <strong>an</strong>d c<strong>an</strong> be described
