HVAC Control System
HVAC here stands for Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning. Thus, a HVAC control system applies regulation to e.g. a heating. Usually, a sensing device is used to compare the actual state (e.g. temperature) with a target state. Then, the control system draws a conclusion what action has to be taken (e.g. start blower).

Famous quotes containing the words control and/or system:
“Physical nature lies at our feet shackled with a hundred chains. What of the control of human nature? Do not point to the triumphs of psychiatry, social services or the war against crime. Domination of human nature can only mean the domination of every man by himself.”
—Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)
“The United States is unusual among the industrial democracies in the rigidity of the system of ideological control—”indoctrination” we might say—exercised through the mass media.”
—Noam Chomsky (b. 1928)
