Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of controlling a gas furnace that performs heating operation according to a heating signal formed of one of a weak heating signal and a strong heating signal. The method includes: (a) receiving the heating signal; (b) determining whether the heating signal is the weak heating signal or the strong heating signal; (c) calculating a certain weak heating capacity smaller than a maximum heating capacity of the gas furnace, when the heating signal is the weak heating signal; and (d) operating a weak heating of the gas furnace with the calculated certain weak heating capacity, wherein the step (c) includes calculating the weak heating capacity according to a difference between a temperature of air (hereinafter, an intake air temperature) sucked into the gas furnace and a reference temperature set based on the intake air temperature.

Abstract: An ejector and a refrigeration cycle apparatus having an ejector are provided. The ejector may include an ejector body having a suction portion into which a high pressure refrigerant and a low pressure refrigerant may be suctioned, and having a mixing portion provided at one side of the suction portion and configured to mix the high pressure refrigerant with the low pressure refrigerant; a nozzle movably provided in the suction portion, and configured to inject the high pressure refrigerant; a needle inserted into an end of the nozzle and configured to control a flow sectional area of the nozzle; and a nozzle drive configured to drive the nozzle so as to be relatively movable with respect to the mixing portion and the needle. As a flow sectional area of a high pressure refrigerant passage and a flow sectional area of a low pressure refrigerant passage are controlled, a driving efficiency of the ejector may be enhanced.
