摘要:
In a refrigeration cycle device, a design volume ratio, obtained by dividing a stroke volume of a sub-compressor by a stroke volume of an expander, is set to be smaller than (DE/DC)×(hE−hF)/(hB−hA). With an operating efficiency being the maximum in an operating range allowed to be set of the refrigeration cycle device, DE is a density of a refrigerant, which has flowed out from a radiator, DC is a density of the refrigerant, which has flowed out from an evaporator, hE is a specific enthalpy of the refrigerant flowing into the expander, hF is a specific enthalpy of the refrigerant, which has flowed out from the expander, hA is a specific enthalpy of the refrigerant sucked by a main compressor, and hB is a specific enthalpy of the refrigerant at an intermediate position of a compression process of the main compressor.

In a refrigeration cycle apparatus that recovers power in an expander, obtaining a refrigeration cycle apparatus that is capable of reliably starting up the expander compared to conventional refrigeration cycle apparatuses. The refrigeration cycle apparatus includes a refrigerant circuit having a first compressor, a radiator, an expander and an evaporator connected in series with a piping; and a second compressor disposed between the first compressor and the radiator, the second compressor being driven by power recovered by the expander. The second compressor being a positive displacement compressor. The refrigeration cycle apparatus, further including a pressure regulating device (a bypass and an on-off valve) that maintains a pressure on a discharge side of the second compressor to be lower than a pressure on a suction side of the second compressor at least until the second compressor is started up.

A refrigeration cycle apparatus includes a refrigeration cycle formed by a first compressor, a radiator, an expander that expands a refrigerant that has passed through the radiator, and an evaporator. A bypass piping has one end connected to a discharge piping of the expander and the other end connected to a suction piping of the first compressor. A pressure sensor and a temperature sensor detect the suction pressure and suction temperature of the expander as physical quantities of the refrigerant to be sucked into the expander. A bypass valve controls the flow rate of the refrigerant. A control device determines the appropriate discharge pressure of the expander on the basis of the suction pressure and suction temperature of the expander, and opens the bypass valve when the pressure at which the expander discharges the refrigerant is higher than the determined appropriate discharge pressure.

Disclosed is a positive displacement expander equipped with an expansion mechanism in which power is generated using fluid energy produced while a high-pressure fluid, supplied to a plurality of expansion chambers partitioned by an orbiting scroll or a rolling piston, is being expanded and decompressed. The expander includes a communicating pipe that allows each of the expansion chambers to communicate with an expander discharge side and an opening and closing device disposed on the communicating pipe. When supply of the high-pressure fluid is stopped, the opening and closing device is opened by the time when high and low pressures between each of the expansion chambers and the expander discharge side are equalized, thus stopping the orbiting scroll or the rolling piston at a predetermined position so that an expander obtains sufficient driving force when resuming.

A refrigeration cycle apparatus achieves efficient operation by constantly recovering power in a wide operating range. The refrigeration cycle apparatus regulates a pressure of a high pressure side by changing either one or both of an opening degree of the intermediate-pressure bypass valve and an opening degree of the pre-expansion valve on the basis of a density ratio that is obtained from an inflow refrigerant density of the expander and an inflow refrigerant density of the sub-compressor in an actual operating state and a design volume ratio that has been expected at the time of design and that is obtained from a stroke volume of the sub-compressor, a stroke volume of the expander, and a ratio of a flow rate of the refrigerant flowing to the sub-compressor.

A refrigeration cycle apparatus increases the cooling capacity even under overload conditions in a refrigeration cycle apparatus that uses a refrigerant which undergoes transition to a supercritical state and in which the high-pressure side enters a supercritical state.A refrigeration cycle apparatus adjusts a high-pressure-side pressure of a refrigerant flowing through a main refrigerant circuit by causing a controller to control an opening degree of a second expansion valve and a heat transfer area of a radiator.
