    摘要: Provided is a cascade refrigeration cycle apparatus that is highly efficient. The cascade refrigeration cycle apparatus includes a fan (40), a first cycle, a second cycle, and a cascade heat exchanger. In the first cycle, a first refrigerant having a critical point of 40°C or higher circulates. The first cycle includes a condenser (104) in which air supplied by the fan and the first refrigerant exchange heat. In the second cycle, carbon dioxide as a second refrigerant circulates. The second cycle includes a first heat exchanger (26) functioning as a radiator in which air supplied by the fan and the second refrigerant exchange heat. In the cascade heat exchanger, the first refrigerant and the second refrigerant exchange heat. The condenser is disposed on a windward side of the radiator in an airflow direction (D) that is a direction of an airflow generated by the fan.

    摘要: An air conditioning unit includes an electric component unit (420), a first heat exchanger (12), a second heat exchanger (23), a fan (44), a casing (41), and a partition plate (46). The first heat exchanger (12) exchanges heat between a combustible first refrigerant and air. The second heat exchanger (23) exchanges heat between a non-combustible second refrigerant and air. The fan (44) causes air to flow to the first heat exchanger (12) and the second heat exchanger (23). The partition plate (46) partitions an inside of the casing (41) into a first chamber (S1) in which the first heat exchanger (12), the second heat exchanger (23), and the fan (44) are disposed, and a second chamber (S2) in which the electric component unit (420) is disposed. The partition plate (46) is provided with a communication hole (461) that communicates the first chamber (S1) and the second chamber (S2) above a first brazed portion (120) located uppermost among a plurality of brazed portions (121) of the first heat exchanger (12).

    摘要: A refrigeration cycle system includes: a compressor lubricated by lubricating oil and configured to compress refrigerant; an evaporator configured to allow the refrigerant having dissipated heat and having been decompressed after the compression by the compressor to pass therethrough and cause the passing refrigerant to exchange heat with an object; and a storage container provided between the evaporator and the compressor, the storage container being configured to store the refrigerant and the lubricating oil. The system is capable of supplying the lubricating oil stored in the storage container to the compressor even when an environmental temperature of an environment in which the storage container is installed becomes an inversion temperature at which a density of the lubricating oil and a density of the refrigerant in a liquid state are inverted.

    摘要: An air conditioner (1) includes a heat-source-side unit (2), a plurality of use-side units (3a, 3b, 3c, 3d), an intermediate unit (4), and two connection pipes (5, 6). The intermediate unit (4) switches each of a plurality of use-side heat exchangers to individually function as an evaporator or a radiator of a refrigerant. The two connection pipes (5, 6) connect the heat-source-side unit (2) and the intermediate unit (4). The intermediate unit (4) has an ejector (41) and a gas-liquid separator (42). The ejector (41) pressurizes the refrigerant evaporated in the evaporator by using a driving flow. The refrigerant flowing out from the ejector (41) flows into the gas-liquid separator (42). The ejector (41) functions in a cooling-heating mixed operation mainly for cooling in which a sum of cooling operation loads of the plurality of use-side units (3a, 3b, 3c, 3d) is greater than a sum of heating operation loads of the plurality of use-side units (3a, 3b, 3c, 3d).

    摘要: A first ventilation system 11 includes a refrigerant circuit 50 in which a compressor 42, a first heat exchanger 23, and a second heat exchanger 33 are connected by a refrigerant pipe 51 and a refrigerant flows inside, a supply fan 22 that supplies air in an outdoor space S2 to an indoor space S1 through the first heat exchanger 23, an exhaust fan 32 that exhausts air in the indoor space S1 to the outdoor space S2 through the second heat exchanger 33, and a control unit 16. The control unit 16 determines whether the supply fan 22 and the exhaust fan 32 are normal. When determining that one of the supply fan 22 or the exhaust fan 32 is abnormal, the control unit 16 stops the one of the supply fan 22 or the exhaust fan 32 determined to be abnormal and continues an operation of another one of the supply fan 22 or the exhaust fan 32 determined to be normal.

    摘要: An air conditioner (1a) includes a heat-source-side unit (2), a plurality of use-side units (3a, 3b, 3c, 3d), an intermediate unit (4a, 4b, 4c, 4d), and three or more connection pipes (5, 6, 7). The connection pipes (5, 6, 7) connect the heat-source-side unit (2) to the intermediate unit (4a, 4b, 4c, 4d). The intermediate unit (4a, 4b, 4c, 4d) includes an ejector (41a, 41b, 41c, 41d) and a gas-liquid separator (42a, 42b, 42c, 42d). The ejector (41a, 41b, 41c, 41d) pressurizes a refrigerant. A refrigerant that has flowed out from the ejector (41a, 41b, 41c, 41d) flows into the gas-liquid separator (42a, 42b, 42c, 42d). It is configured such that the refrigerant that has radiated heat in any of the use-side units (3a, 3b, 3c, 3d) that performs a heating operation is not pressurized by the ejector (41a, 41b, 41c, 41d).
