摘要: An electronic modulating valve for a refrigerant system including a valve body; an electrically actuated valve member mounted in the valve body for modulating flow of fluid through the valve body; an electric power element having at least a portion of an electric actuator; and an electronic controller operably connected to the actuator, in which the actuator is operably connected to the valve member to control movement of the valve member in response to commands from the controller. The valve may include a probe configured to sense a mechanical vibration in the system and/or a refrigerant leak sensor. The controller receives information from the probe and/or leak sensor and controls movement of the valve member via the actuator in response to the information. The controller may be configured with a closed-loop logic architecture to control movement of the valve member via the electric actuator.

摘要: A method of operating an HVAC system includes compressing a working fluid using a compressor, removing heat from the working fluid using a condenser, removing pressure from the working fluid using an expansion valve, and transferring heat between airflow contacting an outer surface of one or more coils in an evaporator and the working fluid passing through the one or more coils. The method further includes detecting a leak of the working fluid using a leak detection sensor. The method further includes transporting at least a portion of the working fluid to a storage container and storing the working fluid in the storage container.

摘要: A refrigeration apparatus includes: a refrigerant circuit through which refrigerant circulates; a controller to execute a plurality of refrigerant shortage sensing functions of sensing a shortage of an amount of the refrigerant; and an input device through which an operation mode to be set is input into the controller. The operation mode includes: a first mode in which energy-saving performance is emphasized; and a second mode in which the refrigeration apparatus is permitted to operate in a range in which reliability is ensured. In accordance with the operation mode set through the input device, the controller determines which one of sensing results obtained by the refrigerant shortage sensing functions is enabled and which one of sensing results obtained by the refrigerant shortage sensing functions is disabled. When a sensing result determined to be enabled shows a refrigerant shortage, the controller gives a notification about the refrigerant shortage.

摘要: An open-close valve unit includes a block body, a first open-close valve, and a second open-close valve. The block body includes a first main flow path and a second main flow path. The first main flow path has a first opening and a second opening. The second main flow path has a third opening and a fourth opening. The first open-close valve includes a first valve body movable to open and close the first main flow path. The second open-close valve includes a second valve body movable to open and close the second main flow path. The first open-close valve is in an open state when in an energized state. When the first open-close valve is in the energized state, the second open-close valve is in a de-energized state, and placed in an open state by a dynamic pressure of the fluid flowing in the second main flow path.

摘要: A performance degradation diagnosis system includes a determining unit, and control unit. A refrigeration cycle apparatus includes a refrigerant circuit having a compressor, heat-source-side heat exchanger, and use-side heat exchanger. The determining unit determines, based on an index indicating an operation state of the refrigeration cycle apparatus, performance degradation of the refrigeration cycle apparatus with respect to each of a plurality of performance degradation factors. In a case in which the determining unit determines performance degradation, the control unit grasps an operation condition of the refrigeration cycle apparatus which is operating. In a case in which the operation condition of the refrigeration cycle apparatus is not suitable to determine performance degradation with respect to a performance degradation factor of a determination target, the control unit controls the operation condition of the refrigeration cycle apparatus so that the operation condition of the refrigeration cycle apparatus becomes an appropriate operation condition.

摘要: A multi-air conditioner for heating/cooling operation may include: at least one indoor unit which is installed in a room, and includes an indoor heat exchanger; an outdoor unit which is connected to the indoor unit through a refrigerant pipe, and includes an outdoor heat exchanger, a compressor, an outdoor expansion valve, and a four-way valve; at least one leakage blocking valve which is formed on the refrigerant pipe, and blocks a refrigerant flow in the refrigerant pipe when a refrigerant leak occurs from the refrigerant pipe in the room; and a buffer unit which is installed on the refrigerant pipe between the indoor unit and the outdoor unit, and collects refrigerant leaking from the refrigerant pipe. Accordingly, when the refrigerant leaks into the room, it is possible to minimize the amount of the leaking refrigerant by collecting the refrigerant in the buffer tank.
