    Abstract: A refrigeration cycle apparatus includes a refrigerant circuit through which refrigerant is circulated, a heat exchanger unit that accommodates a heat exchanger of the refrigerant circuit and a fan, a temperature sensor disposed in an area of the refrigerant circuit adjacent to a brazed connection or in an area of the refrigerant circuit adjacent to a joint between refrigerant pipes, and a controller configured to determine the presence of refrigerant leakage based on a temperature detected by the temperature sensor. The temperature sensor is covered by a heat insulation material together with the brazed connection or the joint. The controller activates the fan upon determining that refrigerant leakage is present, and is triggered to deactivate the fan in response to the time variation of the temperature detected by the temperature sensor becoming positive.

    Abstract: An air-conditioning apparatus includes: a centrifugal air-sending device including a fan and a scroll casing having a tongue portion and a discharge portion, and a housing having a housing suction port and a discharge portion. A trailing edge of a blade located closest to a wall portion of the housing is a first trailing edge portion, and a leading edge of a blade located closest to the tongue portion is a first leading edge portion. In a first region, a boundary portion located closest to the tongue portion is located between first and second straight lines. The first straight line passes through a rotation axis of the fan and the first trailing edge portion, the second straight line is parallel to the first straight line and passes through the first leading edge portion, and the first region forms part of the housing suction port close to the tongue portion.

    Abstract: An air-conditioning apparatus is provided with an indoor unit and an outdoor unit connected to each other via a refrigerant pipe through which refrigerant flows. The air-conditioning apparatus includes a refrigerant detection unit configured to detect leakage of the refrigerant in the indoor unit, a notification unit configured to provide a notification of occurrence of leakage of the refrigerant, a communication unit capable of communicating with an external terminal device via a network, and a controller configured to control at least the notification unit and the communication unit. The notification unit includes at least one of a display unit and a speaker disposed on a surface of a casing of the indoor unit, and the external terminal device, in addition to a display unit disposed on a remote controller for operating the indoor unit. When leakage of the refrigerant is detected by the refrigerant detection unit, the controller controls the notification unit and the communication unit to provide a notification of occurrence of leakage of the refrigerant. Accordingly, a warning notification of refrigerant leakage is provided not only from the notification unit disposed on the indoor unit, but also from the external terminal device to attract more attention to the notification even from a user not in the vicinity of the indoor unit such that the user easily notices the notification and becomes fully aware of the refrigerant leakage.
