- This air will then be moved to the interior of the cabin H, to give a feeling of freshness to the passengers, in addition or alternatively to the refrigeration of the passenger compartment H by the air conditioning of the vehicle.
- the vehicle V comprises a heat transfer fluid circuit C F.
- This circuit C F is already present in the vehicle V and allows the circulation in the vehicle of a fluid at a given sterilization temperature, namely a temperature sufficient to kill some microorganisms, for example a higher temperature or equal to 85 ° C.

- this exchanger 3 could be arranged between other members, for example between the buffer tank 5 and the main tank 1.
- the fluid passage channels 43 of the AC supply circuit pass through this exchanger 3.
- the heat transfer liquid circuit C F comprises a portion, for example other fluid passage channels 53, passing through this exchanger 3.

- the exchanger 3 can also be a plate heat exchanger.
- the heat transfer liquid circuit C F will thus participate in the sterilization of the liquid supplying the nebulizer 6.
- the coolant circuit C F may be a vehicle cooling circuit, inside which a coolant circulates. The latter cools a part of the vehicle to cool down. After passing through this part to be cooled, the coolant was charged with calories.

- the feed liquid enters the reservoir buffer 5, rises to the upper level of the separator 25, passes above the separator 25 to compensate for the supply liquid consumed by the nebulizer 6. Since the arrival flow is slightly greater than the flow rate consumed, the level buffer tank water 5 increases, and the supply liquid exits the buffer tank 5 through the outlet hole 5s.

For example, it may be a PTC whose resistance rapidly increases beyond the given sterilization temperature, for example 85 ° C. This increase in electrical resistance reduces the thermal power of the heating resistor and prevents overheating of the device.

- the water pipes of the filling device R may be of a sufficiently deformable material, such as rubber hoses.
- the air passes through the evaporator 14, it is cooled, for example to about 4 ° C. A large part of the water vapor or moisture contained in the air is then condensed, and falls by gravity of the evaporator 14 in the collecting means 12, such as a recuperator or a tray.
- the evaporator 14 is at a relatively high level, for example at the driving position, the secondary reservoir 10 is positioned below the collection means 12.
- a pipe 13 connects the collecting means 12 and the secondary reservoir 10 The water passes from the collection means 12 to the secondary tank 10 by gravity.
- the main tank 1 is located slightly below the secondary tank 10 so that the water passes from the secondary tank 10 to the main tank 1 by gravity. This passage is controlled by the valve 15 located on the pipe between these two tanks 1 and 10.
- the main reservoir 1 may include an air opening 24 on its top to facilitate this filling.

- the computer triggers an additional heating step E on , by the activation of the electrical resistance 7, which allows to locally heat the feed liquid contained in the buffer tank 5 for extra sterilization.
- the computer triggers the droplet diffusion step E N , by the activation of the nebulizer 6.
- the startup of the nebulizer 6 may be preceded by a check step E che C k if the thermal resistance 7 operates. If this is the case, the computer triggers the droplet diffusion step E N. Otherwise, the computer triggers a step of ventilation without nebulization Evo ⁇
- the main heat exchange step E e c h in the heat exchanger 3, continues in parallel.
- the computer performs a verification step E Tca of the supply liquid temperature Tca of the supply circuit C, to determine if all the elements of the supply circuit C A is heated at its given sterilization temperature T s .
- the computer compares the temperature of the feed liquid Tca with the given sterilization temperature T s . If this is the case, the computer proceeds to a step of stopping the heat exchange in the exchanger 3 and the electrical resistors E off , triggering in this example the closing of the valve 22 and the interruption of the 7.
- the method loops back to the comparison step E Tca of the temperature of the supply circuit C A , until this temperature reaches the temperature of the heating circuit. Ts sterilization.
- the measurement of the temperature to perform this comparison can be carried out by means of the temperature probe 21 located in the first part 5a of the buffer tank 5. Indeed, as the liquid supply is in continuous circulation in this first part 5a, it can be considered that when this temperature sensor 21 indicates a temperature above the given sterilization temperature Ts, all of the feed liquid circulating throughout the supply circuit C A will have been brought to this given sterilization temperature Ts .
- the computer also triggers an additional heating step E on , by supplying electrical power to the electrical resistance 7. However, it does not initiate the main heat exchange step E c h - Following this, the method goes parallel, firstly engage the E N droplet diffusion step, possibly having at least preliminarily proceeded to a verification step E che c k of the operation of the electrical resistance 7, and secondly loop back on the verification step E Tcf of the water temperature Tcf of the cooling circuit C F of the motor 26 , until the latter reaches the given sterilization temperature Ts. In the latter case, the computer will then open the valve 22.
- the computer closes the valve 22 and the heating of the supply circuit C A stops. We can either let it cool by natural convection with its environment, either by a radiator (not shown).
- the feed liquid may be supplemented with condensed water in evaporator 14 of the vehicle V air conditioning.
- the computer in order to carry out this step of verifying the level E niv , makes the comparison of the volume of liquid V i in the main reservoir 1 with a threshold volume value V s .

- the computer performs a verification step E P that there is liquid in the secondary tank 10.
- the computer initiates a transfer step E Trans , by sending an opening command to the valve 15 to fill the tank main 1 by the secondary tank 10. Following this transfer, the computer loops back to the step of checking the level E n i V of liquid feed in the main tank 1.
- the computer triggers the step of ventilation without scattering of droplets E v o ⁇
- the steps relating to the verification of the water levels and the above-mentioned transfer steps can be implemented just after the initial control step E c of the nebu 1 isati on, before the verification step E Ds of the time elapsed since the last sterilization.
- the computer may further implement a time delay, according to which after a given time since the last sterilization, for example 12 hours, a sterilization is engaged, independently of any control nebu 1 i s s t on.
- the computer implements a simplified method, without nebulization, nor activation of the additional heating steps.
- this sterilization method alone, engages directly at the end of the given time in the verification step E Tcf of the water temperature T Cf of the cooling circuit.
- cooling C F of the motor 26, or according to the corresponding embodiment at the level of the verification step E n i V of the supply liquid level in the main tank 1. The rest of the process corresponds to that of FIG.
- the method makes it possible to decontaminate the feed liquid contained in the lines and the various members of the supply circuit C A.
- the sterilization needs to be done only temporarily, for example after a given duration or filling of the supply circuit; the supply liquid can thus be cold, which improves the thermal performance of the system;
- the diffusion device is operated only if and only if the water sterilization temperature is reached or has been reached since certain duration; the sprayed liquid in the passenger compartment is thus totally treated;
- nebulizers positioned at the passenger levels, to allow to choose on which or at which level (s) the passenger (s) the diffusion of droplets must be carried out, and thus to have a feeling of freshness personalized.
