Abstract

L'invention porte sur une unité côté source de chaleur et sur un climatiseur de réfrigération qui permettent tous deux d'utiliser efficacement des réservoirs ou autre, et qui permettent également une récupération très efficace ou autre. L'invention porte plus précisément sur une unité côté source de chaleur (100) qui comporte un compresseur (101) et un échangeur de chaleur côté source de chaleur (104) et qui comporte également un circuit de fluide frigorigène qui est formé par un raccord de tubes entre un dispositif de gaz à côté charge (202) et un échangeur de chaleur côté charge (201). Dans l'unité côté source de chaleur (100), le circuit de fluide frigorigène est muni d'un réservoir d'huile (110) pour distribuer une huile de machine réfrigérante qui est perdue par le lavage du circuit de fluide frigorigène dans le compresseur (101) pour remplir à nouveau l'huile de machine réfrigérante.
