Creation or development of better simulation tool or technique is one of the major intension in manufacturing simulation. In resent research most of the manufacturing processes are simulated successfully. But some processes are not yet simulated effectively, especially automatic air conditioning (AC) system or refrigeration system. The automatic AC system for the passenger vehicle are not yet effectively simulated. Hence in this paper a machine learning technique is adopted for the effective prediction of parameter of automatic AC system. The proposed system uses k-nearest neighbour technique for the prediction of parameter will less error and high accuracy. The proposed system is implemented using MATLAB and its performance is compared with the support vector machine and ANN in terms of mean square error and accuracy. The proposed technique out-performs the conventional technique and suggest that the k-nearest neighbour become the most suitable technique for the modelling and performance analysis of automatic AC system.
