Abstract

A personal environment unit comprises a housing having an air inlet and an air outlet, a diffuser in the air outlet for distributing air flowing therethrough, a heat exchanger for exchanging heat with air flowing between the air inlet and air outlet, a thermal fluid channel having a thermal fluid inlet port and a thermal fluid outlet port for connection to a thermal fluid reservoir, a heat pump located between said thermal fluid channel and said heat exchanger means, and a control unit for controlling the heat pump means to control the rate of supply of heat to, or withdrawal of heat from, the heat exchanger. The unit gives the individual complete control over his personal environment.
