The minimum volumes required for the accumulator and the receiver with respect to the refrigeration capacity of the air conditioner in the R410A, R22 and R32 refrigerants were experimentally examined. As a result of the experiment, as shown in FIG. 3, the smaller the refrigerating capacity is, the smaller the required refrigerant charge is.
