Numerical simulations and analysis of the approach to steady states of a
model for the dynamic behavior of an automotive thermostat-like system
are presented. The model consists of a coupled system of three delay differential
equations with hysteresis. This work is a continuation of our recent investigation
of models for automotive thermostats in Zou et al. (1999). The main interest
lies in the types of oscillations that such models can exhibit. This is done through
the analysis of the steady states and the decay of the solutions to these states.
