Title:
AIR CONDITIONER
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2019/087621
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The air conditioner according to the present invention comprises: a compressor having a variable operating frequency; an outdoor heat exchanger and an indoor heat exchanger; and a switching mechanism for reversibly switching a stream of refrigerant in a refrigerant circuit. The air conditioner is configured so as to perform a refrigerant discharge startup operation wherein, when the compressor starts up as part of starting cooling operation or heating operation, the compressor is operated at a first target frequency with the switching mechanism switched to a reverse cycle over a specific length of time, after which the compressor is operated with the operating frequency of the compressor changed from the first target frequency to a second target frequency that is lower than the first target frequency. During refrigerant discharge startup operation, a first transition speed at which the operating frequency is lowered from the first target frequency to the second target frequency is faster than a second transition speed at which the operating frequency of the compressor is lowered during heating operation.
