- the low-pressure liquid refrigerant that is not evaporated by the indoor heat exchanger 42 because the indoor fan 43 is stopped is stored in the accumulator 25. Then, the low-pressure gas refrigerant that has flowed into the accumulator 25 is again sucked into the compressor 21.
- trial run mode trial run in trial run mode is explained.
- the trial run is performed by an operator operating an operation button for setting a trial run mode provided on a remote controller (not shown).
- the trial run period that is the entire period of the trial run performed in the trial run mode is set in advance (for example, 3 minutes), and when the set trial run period ends, the operation set by the user via the remote controller
- the mode heating operation in the normal operation mode
- the test operation is usually performed in a state where the four-way switching valve 22 is controlled to the second state (the refrigerant circuit is in a so-called cooling cycle state).
- the closing valve for example, the gas-side closing valve 27
- the pressure detected by the refrigerant pressure sensor 33 is difficult to increase when a trial operation is performed in the heating cycle. Because it is possible.
- many of the heating-only air conditioners have not been drained so that the drain water collected in the drain pan is discharged outside the room. For this reason, for example, when a heating-only air conditioner is used in a hot and humid place or a hot and humid season (for example, summer) and a trial operation is performed in a cooling cycle, the indoor fan is sent to the indoor heat exchanger by the indoor fan.
- drain water suppression control is performed to operate the compressor 21 and stop the indoor fan 43.
- the drain water suppression period in which the drain water suppression control is performed is the same as the trial operation period. That is, in the heating-only air conditioner 1, the indoor fan 43 is always stopped during the trial operation in the trial operation mode.
- the trial operation is performed in a state where the four-way switching valve 22 is in the second state.
- the indoor fan 43 is stopped. Therefore, since indoor air is no longer sent to the indoor heat exchanger 42 by the indoor fan 43, the amount of indoor air in which the refrigerant in the indoor heat exchanger 42 exchanges heat decreases. Accordingly, since the drain water generated in the indoor heat exchanger 42 is also reduced, it is possible to prevent the drain water from overflowing from the drain pan 45 even in summer. Further, since the drain water does not overflow from the drain pan 45, it is possible to prevent the drain water from flowing into the room. This also eliminates the need for drain work.
- the indoor fan 43 is stopped during the test operation and the defrost operation. For this reason, it is assumed that the amount of evaporation of the refrigerant flowing through the indoor heat exchanger 42 is smaller than when the indoor fan 43 is operating. Further, since the evaporation amount of the refrigerant flowing through the indoor heat exchanger 42 is reduced, not only the gas refrigerant but also the gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant flows out of the indoor heat exchanger 42 and flows to the outdoor unit 2 side. It is considered to be.
- the accumulator 25 between the suction side of the compressor 21 and the four-way switching valve 22, even when the gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant flows to the outdoor unit 2 side, the liquid refrigerant is accumulated in the accumulator 25. Therefore, only the gas refrigerant can be sucked into the compressor 21. Thereby, damage to the compressor 21 can be prevented.
- the refrigerant is not limited to the chlorofluorocarbon refrigerant, and may be a natural refrigerant such as a CO2 refrigerant.
- step S101 the four-way switching valve 22 is controlled to the second state as in the first embodiment.
- step S102 the compressor 21 and the outdoor fan 28 are driven as in the first embodiment.
- the indoor fan 43 is not driven, but in the second embodiment, in addition to the compressor 21 and the outdoor fan 28, Furthermore, the indoor fan 43 is driven.
- step S103 it is determined whether or not the indoor fan 43 is operating normally.
- step S104 drain water suppression control is performed as in the first embodiment. That is, the compressor 21 maintains the operation state as it is, and the indoor fan 43 is stopped.
- step S105 it is determined that the indoor fan 43 is not operating normally, and a warning is displayed via a notification unit (not shown, for example, an LED or a character display).
- the period during which the indoor fan 43 is driven (corresponding to the first period) is about 5 to 10 seconds. Therefore, the drain water suppression period during which the drain water suppression control is performed accounts for 80% or more (specifically, about 94% to about 97%) of the trial operation period (for example, 3 minutes).
- the period during which the indoor fan 43 is driven is the first period in the trial operation period. This is because when the indoor fan 43 is driven when the evaporation temperature is lowered, drain water is likely to be generated. Even when the compressor 21 and the outdoor fan 28 are not normally driven, a warning display is performed in the same manner as the indoor fan 43.
- the heating-only air conditioner 1 according to the second embodiment can drive the indoor fan 43 during the trial operation in the trial operation mode. For example, when it is desired to check whether the indoor fan 43 is operating normally or the like. It is effective.
- the drain water suppression period in which the drain water suppression control is performed occupies 80% or more of the trial operation period.
- the amount of indoor air sent from the indoor fan 43 to the indoor heat exchanger 42 can be reduced by stopping the indoor fan 43 for a period of 80% or more of the entire period. Therefore, the drain water generated in the indoor heat exchanger 42 is reduced. Therefore, even if the indoor fan 43 is driven to check whether the indoor fan 43 operates normally, the drain water can be prevented from overflowing from the drain pan 45.
- the period during which the indoor fan 43 is driven is the first period in the trial operation period. That is, the indoor fan 43 is driven in the first period during the trial operation when the evaporation temperature has not decreased so much. Thereby, even if the indoor fan 43 is driven in order to check whether the indoor fan 43 operates normally, it is possible to prevent the drain water from overflowing from the drain pan 45. This also eliminates the need for drain work.
- the indoor fan 43 is driven to check whether the indoor fan 43 operates normally.
- the present invention is not limited to this, and the indoor fan 43 is used for other purposes. You may drive as follows. Even in this case, the same effect as described above can be obtained.
- Air conditioning unit for heating Outdoor casing (outdoor unit) 4 Indoor casing (indoor unit) 7 Gas side refrigerant communication pipe (gas refrigerant pipe) 9 Control part 21 Compressor (compression mechanism) 22 Four-way selector valve 23 Outdoor heat exchanger 24 Outdoor expansion valve (expansion mechanism) 25 Accumulator (gas-liquid separator) 27 Gas side shut-off valve 33 Refrigerant pressure sensor (pressure detector) 42 Indoor heat exchanger 43 Indoor fan (blower)
