Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve start-up characteristic of the heating operation by providing an ejector upstream to the refrigerant heater and by making the suction side of the ejector communicate with the outdoor heat exchanger. CONSTITUTION:A compressor 1 is connected through a four-way switching valve 2 to an outdoor heat exchanger 3, a pressure reducer 4, a check valve 5, an expansion valve 6, and an indoor heat exchanger 7 in this sequence in a loop. A heating conduit 9 branches off from between the check valve 5 and the expansion valve 6 with its forward end connected to the downstream side of a check valve 8; to this heating conduit 9 are provided a two-way valve 10, as ejector 13, and a refrigerant heater 11 which is equipped with a burner 12, each in this sequence. A refrigerant-collecting conduit 14 which branches off from between the delivery00 side of the four-way switching valve 2 and the check valve 8 is connected to the suction side of the ejector 13. Simultaneously with the start of the heating operation the refrigerant inside the outdoor heat exchanger 3 is collected into the heating circuit so that it is not necessary for the heating operation to be preceded by the running for collecting the refrigerant.
