    Abstract: A vehicle air conditioner includes a compressor, a heating unit, an outside air heat exchanger, a wind speed regulation unit, and a controller. The controller includes a melting control unit, a dry control unit, and a dry completion determination unit. In a dry defrosting mode, the melting control unit performs melting-defrosting to melt frost adhering to the outside air heat exchanger. The dry control unit performs a dry defrosting in which at least one of the amount of heat in a predetermined range or a wind speed regulated in a predetermined range by the wind speed regulation unit is supplied to residual water adhering to the outside air heat exchanger, due to melting of frost in the melting-defrosting, to dry the residual water. The dry completion determination unit determines whether drying of the residual water in the outside air heat exchanger is completed, in the dry defrosting.

    Abstract: A vehicle air-conditioning device includes a compressor, a heating unit, an outside air heat exchanger, a wind speed regulation unit, and a controller. The heating unit includes a heating heat exchanger and heats ventilation air supplied to a space to be air conditioned using a high-pressure refrigerant as a heat source. The wind speed regulation unit regulates a wind speed of air supplied to the outside air heat exchanger. The control unit performs, as a defrosting operation of defrosting the outside air heat exchanger, a dry defrosting mode for evaporating and removing frost adhering to the outside air heat exchanger in a state where the outside air is at a low temperature. In the dry defrosting mode, the controller causes the wind speed regulation unit to supply air to the outside air heat exchanger at a wind speed in a range determined to promote evaporation and removal of frost.

    Abstract: The refrigeration cycle device includes a compressor, an outside heat exchanger, a cooling pressure reducing unit, an evaporator, a branch portion, a cool down pressure reducing unit, a temperature adjusting unit, a merging portion, a bypass passage, and a first on-off valve. The temperature adjusting unit includes a temperature adjusting heat exchange unit and adjusts a temperature of a temperature adjustment target object. During a cooling and cool down mode, the outside heat exchanger functions as a radiator, and the evaporator and the temperature adjusting heat exchange unit function as heat absorbers. During a target object warm up mode, the refrigerant discharged from the compressor is guided to the temperature adjusting heat exchange unit via the bypass passage, and the heat of the discharged refrigerant is used as a heat source for heating the temperature adjustment target object.

    Abstract: A refrigeration cycle apparatus includes: an electric compressor that compresses and discharges refrigerant; a heating heat exchanger that heats a fluid by high pressure refrigerant discharged from the electric compressor as a heat source; a decompressor that decompresses the refrigerant flowing from the heating heat exchanger; an evaporator that evaporates the refrigerant decompressed by the decompressor; and a rotational speed controller that controls a rotational speed of the electric compressor. The rotational speed controller is configured to reduce an upper limit value of the rotational speed of the electric compressor in accordance with an increase in a pressure ratio of a high-pressure side refrigerant pressure of refrigerant within a range from a discharge port of the compressor to an inlet side of the decompressor to a low-pressure side refrigerant pressure of refrigerant within a range from an outlet side of the decompressor to a suction port of the compressor.

    Abstract: An ejector refrigeration circuit includes a compressor, a heating heat exchanger, a first decompressor, an exterior heat exchanger, a second decompressor, a cooling heat exchanger, a heating ejector, a heating-side gas-liquid separator, and a refrigerant circuit switch. The refrigerant circuit switch switches between a refrigerant circuit in a first dehumidifying-heating mode and a refrigerant circuit in a second dehumidifying-heating mode. A flow direction of the refrigerant through the exterior heat exchanger in the first dehumidifying-heating mode is the same as a flow direction of the refrigerant through the exterior heat exchanger in the second dehumidifying-heating mode. The flow direction of the refrigerant through the exterior heat exchanger in the first dehumidifying-heating mode is different from a flow direction of the refrigerant through the exterior heat exchanger in the heating mode.
