Abstract
In an air conditioning system mounted on a vehicle whose roof is openable and closable, adjustment of the air volume from the blower is made based on whether the roof is open or closed. When it is determined that the roof is open, the air volume from the blower is increased according to an increase in a vehicle speed. As such, when the vehicle speed is increased, and airflow entrapped from rearward to frontward becomes strong while the roof is open, adjustment to the air volume is made.
