Abstract

A control system describing the dynamic behavior of a car thermostat is considered. The cooling power of the car's radiator is allowed to depend on the ambient temperature. This physically natural assumption presents some challenges to mathematical investigation of the model. The existence and some properties of solutions of the control system are established.
