BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION In order to solve the above problems, the present invention relates to an indoor heat exchanger divided into an indoor unit evaporation heat exchanger and an indoor unit condensation heat exchanger, and a divided heat exchanger. A refrigeration cycle having an indoor unit with a pipe temperature sensor attached was used. Embodiments will be described below with reference to the drawings. (Embodiment) FIG. 1 shows a structure of a refrigeration cycle used in an embodiment of the present invention. The operation of the refrigeration cycle during the reheat dehumidification operation will be described below.

In this refrigeration cycle, the compressor 7 compresses and discharges the refrigerant, passes through the four-way valve 8 that switches between cooling and heating, and is radiated by the outdoor fan 10 in the outdoor heat exchanger 9 to condense the refrigerant.

The refrigerant once condensed in the outdoor unit is sent from the outdoor unit to the indoor unit via the outdoor expansion valve 11. However, in the case of the reheat dehumidifying operation, the rotation speed of the outdoor fan 10 is reduced to reduce the outdoor expansion valve. By opening 11, the refrigerant is not completely condensed outside the room.

Therefore, the residual heat is radiated indoors in the indoor unit condensation heat exchanger 15. After this, the condensed refrigerant passes through the indoor dehumidifying capy 13 and is decompressed, and the indoor unit evaporation heat exchanger 17
To absorb heat. At this time, dehumidification is performed at the same time, so that the relative humidity in the room decreases. The refrigerant having passed through the indoor unit evaporation heat exchanger 17 returns to the compressor 7 again.

In such a refrigeration cycle, the dehumidification amount is approximately given by (absolute humidity of sucked air-indoor unit evaporation heat exchanger temperature) x indoor air amount. Therefore, when the temperature detected by the indoor unit evaporative heat exchanger temperature sensor 16 is higher than the set temperature, the compressor frequency is increased, and when the detected temperature is lower, the compressor frequency is decreased to keep the indoor unit evaporative heat exchanger temperature constant. To maintain the required amount of dehumidification.

However, the sensible heat that determines the room temperature at this time is determined by the indoor air flow rate × (indoor unit condensation heat exchanger temperature−indoor unit evaporation heat exchanger temperature). As described above, since the indoor unit evaporation heat exchanger temperature is kept constant by the compressor frequency, it is possible to control the sensible heat by setting the indoor unit condensation heat exchanger temperature to the set temperature. .

First, in order to bring the room temperature to the set temperature,
Calculate the required sensible heat from (indoor suction temperature-set temperature),
Determine the set indoor unit condensing heat exchanger temperature. In order to obtain this set temperature, the outdoor fan rotation speed is determined from the preset outdoor unit temperature and outdoor fan rotation speed matrix. In the reheat dehumidification type refrigeration cycle, the influence of the number of rotations of the outdoor fan is very large, and therefore it is suitable for a large change. However, it is not suitable for fine adjustment of the refrigeration cycle.

At this time, the opening of the outdoor expansion valve 11 also affects the temperature of the evaporative heat exchanger in the indoor unit, but the effect on the entire refrigeration cycle is sufficiently smaller than that by changing the compressor frequency, and the dehumidification amount changes. There is no such thing. Further, fan dew condensation due to the excessive expansion of the outdoor expansion valve 11 does not occur.
