Title:
AIR-CONDITIONING DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2016/121623
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The problem of the present invention is to provide an air-conditioning device that performs a heating operation by causing an indoor heat exchanger to function as a radiator of a coolant, wherein, even when liquid accumulation occurs in a state of operation in a low circulation amount zone, the air saturation temperature can be correctly detected. In the air-conditioning device (10), even when a compressor (12) is operated at a low number of compressor rotations so as to produce the minimum heating performance and the coolant circulation amount decreases, liquid accumulation does not occur above the height-direction center of an indoor heat exchanger (32) or above a distributor body (81a). Therefore, a coolant temperature sensor (183) attached to the aforementioned region is able to detect the accurate saturation temperature. This eliminates any risk of a breakdown in subcooling control, obviates control of motorized valve-opening action only for eliminating liquid accumulation as in the prior art, and, as shall be apparent, obviates having to provide a pressure sensor.
