Title:
REFRIGERATION CYCLE DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2002/010655
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A refrigeration cycle device which prevents refrigerating machine oil delivered during cycle from obstructing heat transfer and from increasing pressure loss, which is small in size and highly efficient, and which uses carbon dioxide gas (CO¿2?). A refrigeration cycle device at least having piping which successively connects a compressor (1), a radiator (2), a pressure reducer (3), and an evaporator (4), and also having a refrigerant circuit for circulating a refrigerant through the compressor (1), radiator (2), pressure reducer (3), evaporator (4) and piping, wherein carbon dioxide gas (CO¿2?) is sealed as the refrigerant, and the amount of oil sealed in the refrigerant circuit is 0 or not more than 40% by weight of the sealed amount of carbon dioxide gas (CO¿2?), whereby a decrease in heat transfer rate and an increase in pressure loss in the heat exchanger can be minimized and influences on the upsizing of heat exchanges, efficiency lowering, etc., almost disappear.
