Abstract

When a flow rate of a refrigerant is to be adjusted based on a temperature of the refrigerant flowing through refrigerant flow paths, there is an issue in that a temperature sensor is required for each of the refrigerant flow paths. A refrigeration cycle device includes a heat exchanger main body (331), a plurality of flow rate adjustment units (332a to 332i), and a control unit. The heat exchanger main body (331) has a plurality of refrigerant flow paths (333a to 333i) including a first refrigerant flow path (333) and a second refrigerant flow path (333). The flow rate adjustment units (332) adjust flow rates of a refrigerant flowing through the refrigerant flow paths (333). The control unit adjusts the flow rates of the refrigerant flowing through the refrigerant flow paths (333) by controlling opening degrees of the flow rate adjustment units (332). The control unit controls the opening degrees of the flow rate adjustment units (332) based on a first value or a second value. The first value is a value representing overall efficiency of the refrigeration cycle. The second value is a value representing overall efficiency of the heat exchanger main body (331).
