    Abstract: A hybrid multi-air conditioning system with no receiver is provided for optimal valve control. The hybrid multi-air conditioning system includes: a hot-water unit for exchanging heat between refrigerant and water; at least one indoor unit installed indoors and comprising an indoor heat exchanger and an indoor unit expansion valve; and an outdoor unit connected to the indoor unit and the hot-water unit via a refrigerant pipeline and comprising an outdoor heat exchanger, a compressor, and an outdoor unit expansion valve, wherein, when an abnormal refrigerant enters either the at least one indoor unit or the outdoor unit according to an operation mode, the abnormal refrigerant is shut off from the hot-water unit and the at least one indoor unit or the outdoor unit which operates as a condenser. Accordingly, the hybrid multi-air conditioning system improves heat exchange efficiency via direct heat transfer between refrigerant and water by having a coil wound on the water tank to transfer heat between refrigerant and water.

    Abstract: A voice processing method is disclosed. The voice processing method applies first and second sentence vectors extracted from first and second utterances, that are included in one dialog group and are separated from each other, to a learning model and generates an output from which at least one word having an overlapping meaning is removed. The voice processing method can be associated with an artificial intelligence module, an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), a robot, an augmented reality (AR) device, a virtual reality (VR) device, devices related to 5G services, and the like.

    Abstract: A heat exchanger includes heat exchange fins, refrigerant pipes are arranged across the heat exchange fins, and connecting pipes connected to the refrigerant pipes to thereby define refrigerant passages. The connecting pipes include a first pipe portion having a first end connected to one of the refrigerant pipes, a branch pipe portion that is branched from the first pipe portion, that extends parallel to the first pipe portion, and that is connected to another of the refrigerant passages, and a second pipe that is connected to the first pipe portion and that is configured to guide gas-phase refrigerant separated from the refrigerant in the first pipe portion. The second pipe includes an inner insert portion inserted into a second end of the first pipe portion and an outlet portion that extends from the inner insert portion in direction opposite to the second end of the first pipe portion.
