At step 104, the dehumidifying operation is started, and at the same time, the indoor fan motor speed is reduced by the indoor fan motor speed switching means 32 and the output means 33 as compared with the cooling operation. That is, at this stage, the air volume on the indoor side is reduced. (Step 105) At the same time, the operating frequency of the compressor is also changed to a low frequency. (Step 105a) Next, the outdoor temperature Tout sampled by the outdoor temperature detecting means 5 and the specified outdoor temperature T1 by the outdoor temperature setting means 6 are compared by the comparing means 7 (Step 105a).
106) Judgment of the outdoor temperature, and when the outdoor temperature Tout exceeds the specified outdoor temperature T1, the pulse-type expansion valve throttle opening setting means
An initial setting value P1 of the pulse-type expansion valve throttle opening is set by 10 and a signal is output from the output means 12 based on the result of comparison with the throttle opening detected by the pulse-type expansion valve throttle opening detection means 9. Then, the pulse output means 25, the shift means 26, and the output means 27 reduce the throttle opening of the pulse type expansion valve 28 so as to shift to the initial set value. (Step 107) When the outdoor temperature Tout is lower than the specified outdoor temperature T1 in step 106, the pulse-type expansion valve throttle opening setting means 10 is used.
Sets the initial setting value P2 of the pulse type expansion valve throttle opening (P2 has a larger throttle amount than P1).
The pulse output means 25, the transition means 26, and the output means 27 reduce the aperture of the pulse type expansion valve 28 so as to shift to the initial set value. (Step 108) Next, the indoor suction temperature Tin sampled by the indoor suction temperature detecting means 1 and the specified indoor suction temperature Tb by the indoor suction temperature setting means 2 are compared again by the comparing means 3 (Step 109). The indoor suction temperature is determined, and when the indoor suction temperature Tin is lower than Tb, the indoor relative humidity Win sampled by the indoor relative humidity detecting means 17 and the prescribed indoor relative humidity Wa by the indoor relative humidity setting means 18 are compared. By comparing in step 19 (Step 110), the indoor relative humidity is determined, and the indoor relative humidity Win is determined.
If it exceeds Wa, the operating frequency setting unit 14 sets the operating frequency Hz1, and outputs a signal from the output unit 16 based on the comparison result with the operating frequency detected by the operating frequency detecting unit 13, and the frequency switching unit 29, The output means 30 changes the operating frequency of the scroll compressor. (Step 11
1) When the indoor relative humidity Win is lower than Wa at the step 110, the specified indoor relative humidity Wb by the indoor relative humidity setting means 18 is compared again by the comparing means 19 (step 112) and the indoor relative humidity is determined. The indoor relative humidity Win
If it exceeds Wb, the operating frequency Hz2 is set by the operating frequency setting means 14 (Hz1> Hz2), a signal is output from the output means 16 as described above, and the operating frequency of the compressor is changed by the frequency switching means 29 and the output means 30. . (Step 11
3) If the indoor relative humidity Win is lower than Wb in step 112, the operation of the compressor is stopped. (Step
114) Finally, the indoor suction temperature Tin sampled by the indoor suction temperature detecting means 1 and the specified indoor suction temperature Tc by the indoor suction temperature setting means 2 are compared by the comparing means 3 (Step 115). Is determined, and when the indoor suction temperature Tin is lower than the specified indoor suction temperature Tc, the position returns to the position between step 109 and step 110. When the indoor suction temperature Tin exceeds the specified indoor suction temperature Tc, the position returns to the position between step 102 and step 103. In each step, the optimal control for dehumidifying operation was performed by setting the operating frequency of the compressor according to the indoor load and adjusting the throttle opening of the pulse expansion valve. In this case, the operation of switching from the dehumidifying operation to the normal cooling operation is performed.
