Abstract: In an air conditioning system for a vehicle, a duct case has defined therewithin a cold-air passageway and a hot-air passageway. A heater is arranged within the duct case for heating air flowing through the hot-air passageway. An air-mixing damper is arranged for angular movement within the duct case at a location upstream of the heater, for adjusting flow rate of air passing through the cold-air passageway and flow rate of air passing through the hot-air passageway.
