ABSTRACT:
Method of and apparatus for heating or cooling a motor vehicle passenger compartment which communicates with a supply air duct for supplying a stream of air to the compartment and a used air duct for exhausting air from the compartment. A heat source in the form of a sorption reactor transfers heat energy to the air stream, with the reactor being provided with a sorbent such as zeolite or the like. The air stream passes through the reaction chamber of the reactor for extracting moisture from the air stream and adding adsorption heat to the air stream. The air stream then passes through an inflow duct before passing through the reactor, and passes from the reactor through an outflow duct at the outlet end of the reactor. A fresh air duct is provided for selectively feeding fresh air into the inflow duct, and an exhaust air duct opening into the atmosphere is provided for selectively communicating the outflow duct with the exhaust air duct.
