    摘要: A refrigeration cycle apparatus includes a refrigeration cycle, an adsorption section, and a first bypass flow path. The refrigeration cycle includes a compressor, a radiator, an expansion mechanism, and an evaporator, and uses a non-azeotropic refrigerant mixture including a first refrigerant and a second refrigerant. The adsorption section includes an adsorbent and stores the first refrigerant adsorbed by the adsorbent. The adsorbent adsorbs the first refrigerant, and does not adsorb the second refrigerant or the adsorption performance thereof for the second refrigerant is lower than the adsorption performance thereof for the first refrigerant. The first bypass flow path connects a first end which is a high-pressure part of the refrigeration cycle and a second end which is a low-pressure part of the refrigeration cycle. The adsorption section and a valve are disposed in the first bypass flow path.

    摘要: An air conditioner includes: a heat-source-side unit including a compressor and a heat-source-side heat exchanger; use-side units each including a use-side heat exchanger; an intermediate unit that causes the use-side heat exchanger of each of the use-side units to individually function as an evaporator or a radiator of a refrigerant; and three or more connection pipes that connect the heat-source-side unit to the intermediate unit. The intermediate unit includes: an ejector that pressurizes the refrigerant; and a gas-liquid separator into which the refrigerant flowing out from the ejector flows. The refrigerant that has released heat in any of the use-side units that perform a heating operation is not pressurized by the ejector.

    摘要: An air conditioner includes: use-side units that are each switchable between a cooling operation and a heating operation; and a heat-source-side unit including a compressor, a discharge pipe through which a refrigerant discharged from the compressor flows, a first main heat-source-side flow path and a second main heat-source-side flow path that branch off from the discharge pipe, a first heat-source-side heat exchanger, a second heat-source-side heat exchanger, a first economizer heat exchanger, and a second economizer heat exchanger. The first heat-source-side heat exchanger is connected to the first economizer heat exchanger in series in the first main heat-source-side flow path. The second heat-source-side heat exchanger is connected to the second economizer heat exchanger in series in the second main heat-source-side flow path.

    摘要: A refrigerant cycle system includes: a first refrigerant circuit that includes a first heat exchanger, a first compressor, and a first cascade heat exchanger and that is configured as a first vapor compression refrigeration cycle; a second refrigerant circuit that includes the first cascade heat exchanger, a second compressor, and a second heat exchanger and that is configured as a second vapor compression refrigeration cycle; a first unit that accommodates the first heat exchanger and the first compressor; a second unit that accommodates the first cascade heat exchanger and the second compressor; and a third unit that accommodates the second heat exchanger. The first unit, the second unit, and the third unit are disposed apart from each other. The first cascade heat exchanger performs heat exchange between a first refrigerant that flows through the first refrigerant circuit and a second refrigerant that flows through the second refrigerant circuit.

    摘要: A refrigerant cycle system includes a primary-side cycle that circulates a first refrigerant, a secondary-side cycle that circulates a second refrigerant, and a cascade heat exchanger that exchanges heat between the first refrigerant and the second refrigerant. The primary-side cycle includes a primary-side connection pipe. The secondary-side cycle includes a secondary-side connection pipe. The primary-side connection pipe includes a primary-side gas connection pipe and a primary-side liquid connection pipe. The secondary-side connection pipe includes a secondary-side gas connection pipe and a secondary-side liquid connection pipe. The pipe diameter of the secondary-side gas connection pipe is smaller than the pipe diameter of the primary-side gas connection pipe, or the pipe diameter of the secondary-side liquid connection pipe is smaller than the pipe diameter of the primary-side liquid connection pipe.

    摘要: A refrigerant cycle system includes: a primary-side cycle of a vapor compression type that circulates a first refrigerant; a secondary-side cycle of a vapor compression type that circulates a second refrigerant; and a cascade heat exchanger that exchanges heat between the first refrigerant and the second refrigerant. The secondary-side cycle includes a secondary-side heat exchanger that uses cold or heat obtained by the second refrigerant from the cascade heat exchanger. The secondary-side heat exchanger includes a flat multi-hole pipe.
