AIR CONDITIONER - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18366866 titled 'AIR CONDITIONER
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an air conditioner that includes a heat pump cycle, a heat medium circuit, and a blower.
- The air conditioner increases the heating capability by using heat generated by a heat generating part.
- A heating preparation control is executed to ensure efficient heating.
- The refrigerant discharge capability of the compressor is set to be equal to or less than a predetermined reference discharge capability.
- The blowing capability of the blower is set to be equal to or less than a predetermined reference blowing capability.
- This control is maintained until the inlet-side heat medium temperature of the heat medium flowing into the heat medium passage of the low-temperature side water-refrigerant heat exchanger reaches or exceeds a target heat medium temperature.
Original Abstract Submitted
An air conditioner includes: a heat pump cycle including a compressor, a heating part and a low-temperature side water-refrigerant heat exchanger; a heat medium circuit; and a blower. In the air conditioner, when a heating capability of the heating part is increased by using the heat generated by the heat generating part, a heating preparation control is executed, in which a refrigerant discharge capability of the compressor is set to be equal to or less than a predetermined reference discharge capability and a blowing capability of the blower is set to be equal to or less than a predetermined reference blowing capability, until an inlet-side heat medium temperature of the heat medium flowing into the heat medium passage of the low-temperature side water-refrigerant heat exchanger becomes equal to or higher than a target heat medium temperature.
