本発明の実施の形態1について、図面に基づいて説明する。図1は、本発明の実施の形態1に係る冷凍サイクル装置の設置例を示す概略図である。図1に示す冷凍サイクル装置は、冷媒を循環させる冷媒回路を構成して冷媒による冷凍サイクルを利用することで、運転モードとして冷房モードあるいは暖房モードのいずれかを選択できるものである。ここで、本実施の形態の冷凍サイクル装置は、空調対象空間(室内空間7)の空気調和を行う空気調和装置を例として説明する。
室外機1には、圧縮機10と、四方弁等の第1冷媒流路切替装置11と、熱源側熱交換器12と、アキュムレータ19とが冷媒配管で直列に接続されて搭載されている。
室内機2には、それぞれ第二の熱交換器となる負荷側熱交換器15が搭載されている。この負荷側熱交換器15は、延長配管4によって室外機1に接続するようになっている。この負荷側熱交換器15は、図示省略の送風機から供給される空気と冷媒との間で熱交換を行い、室内空間7に供給するための暖房用空気あるいは冷房用空気を生成するものである。負荷側熱交換器15は、室内空間7を暖房する運転の場合には凝縮器として作用する。また、室内空間7を冷房する運転の場合には蒸発器として作用する。
図3は、冷凍サイクル装置100の吐出温度が低い場合の冷房運転モード時における冷媒の流れを示す冷媒回路図である。この図3では、全部の負荷側熱交換器15において冷熱負荷が発生している場合を例に冷房運転モードについて説明する。なお、図3では、太線で表された配管が冷媒の流れる配管を示しており、冷媒の流れ方向を実線矢印で示している。
図4は、冷凍サイクル装置100の暖房運転モード時における冷媒の流れを示す冷媒回路図である。この図4では、全部の負荷側熱交換器15において温熱負荷が発生している場合を例に暖房運転モードについて説明する。なお、図4では、太線で表された配管が冷媒の流れる配管を示しており、冷媒の流れ方向を実線矢印で示している。
冷凍サイクル装置100で使用する冷媒として、R32、R410A等のように、通常に冷媒として使用されている物質を使用する場合は、冷媒回路内での冷媒の安定性を改善するための工夫を施すことなく、このまま普通に使用すればよい。しかし、ここでは、冷媒として、C2H1F3で表され分子構造中に二重結合を1つ有する1,1,2-トリフルオロエチレン(HFO-1123)等の不均化反応を起こす性質の物質で構成した単一冷媒、または、不均化反応を起こす性質の物質に別の物質を混合させた混合冷媒を用いるものとする。
図5は、熱源側熱交換器12や負荷側熱交換器15(15a~15d)等に用いられるプレートフィンチューブ式の熱交換器の構成の概略図である。図5において、プレートフィンチューブ式の熱交換器(12または15)は、第1接続管41、第2接続管42、周囲の熱媒体である空気等と内部の冷媒との熱交換をする伝熱管43、フィン44、第1分配部45及び第2分配部46を備えている。
伝熱管43の内部は冷媒が流れる流路49となっている。伝熱管43の内面には、管軸方向に延びる溝50が周方向に間隔を空けて複数形成され、伝熱管43の内面が凹凸面50aとなっている。このように伝熱管43の内面に溝加工を施して凹凸面50aを形成すると、凹凸面50aの影響で冷媒の境界層が乱され、冷媒の乱れ度が増加する。

図9には、内部が複数(ここでは4つ)の流路49に分かれている扁平流路構造をした扁平管を示している。このような扁平管を伝熱管43に使用する場合等は、不均化反応が起きにくい上述の構成を考えるにあたり、1本の伝熱管43の内部の各流路49の断面積を合計した合計断面積を、1本の伝熱管43の内断面積として扱う。以下、具体例で説明する。
図10の熱交換器(12または15)は、熱交換器(12または15)を蒸発器として作用させる場合の入口側の分配器である第2分配部46として、分配器52及び分配キャピラリ51(51a~51d)を用いる構成としたものである。分配キャピラリ51(51a~51d)の一端は伝熱管43に接続され、他端は分配器52に接続されている。また、分配器52には第2接続管42が接続されている。
以上説明したように、本実施の形態に係る冷凍サイクル装置100は、幾つかの運転モードを具備している。これらの運転モードにおいては、室外機1と室内機2とを接続する延長配管4には冷媒が流れている。
本発明の実施の形態2について、図面に基づいて説明する。以下、実施の形態2が実施の形態1と異なる部分を中心に説明する。なお、実施の形態1の構成部分において適用された変形例は、実施の形態2の同様の構成部分においても同様に適用される。
冷媒と熱交換する熱媒体が空気の場合は、実施の形態1で示したプレートフィンチューブ式の熱交換器が用いられるが、冷媒と熱交換する熱媒体が水やブラインである場合は、プレート式の熱交換器が用いられる場合が多い。プレート式の熱交換器は、複数のプレート53が積層され、各プレート53の間が流路49となっており、各流路49に冷媒と熱媒体とが交互に流れることにより、冷媒と熱媒体とが熱交換を行う構造となっている。
図12に示す冷凍サイクル装置100は、室外機1と中継器である熱媒体変換機3とが延長配管4で接続されて冷媒が循環する冷媒循環回路Aを備えている。また、冷凍サイクル装置100は、熱媒体変換機3と室内機2とが配管(熱媒体配管)5で接続されて、水やブライン等の熱媒体が循環する熱媒体循環回路Bを備えている。熱媒体変換機3は冷媒循環回路Aを循環する冷媒と、熱媒体循環回路Bを循環する熱媒体との熱交換を行う負荷側熱交換器15a及び負荷側熱交換器15bを備えている。
この冷凍サイクル装置100において、負荷側熱交換器15として、図11の熱交換器を使用している。
この冷凍サイクル装置100において、冷媒は実施の形態1と同様のものが使用でき、同様の効果を奏する。また、熱源側熱交換器12または利用側熱交換器26(26a~26d)として、上記実施の形態1で説明した熱交換器を使用している。
全冷房運転モードの場合、圧縮機10から吐出された高温高圧のガス冷媒は、第1冷媒流路切替装置11を介して、熱源側熱交換器12へ流入し、周囲の空気に放熱して凝縮液化し、高圧液冷媒となり、逆止弁13aを通って室外機1から流出する。そして、延長配管4を通って熱媒体変換機3に流入する。熱媒体変換機3に流入した冷媒は、開閉装置17aを通り、絞り装置16a及び絞り装置16bで膨張して低温低圧の二相冷媒となる。二相冷媒は、蒸発器として作用する負荷側熱交換器15a及び負荷側熱交換器15bのそれぞれに流入し、熱媒体循環回路Bを循環する熱媒体から吸熱し、低温低圧のガス冷媒となる。ガス冷媒は、第2冷媒流路切替装置18a及び第2冷媒流路切替装置18bを介して熱媒体変換機3から流出する。そして、延長配管4を通って再び室外機1へ流入する。室外機1へ流入した冷媒は、逆止弁13dを通って、第1冷媒流路切替装置11及びアキュムレータ19を介して、圧縮機10へ再度吸入される。
全暖房運転モードの場合、圧縮機10から吐出された高温高圧のガス冷媒は、第1冷媒流路切替装置11を介して第1接続配管4a、逆止弁13bを通り、室外機1から流出する。そして、延長配管4を通って熱媒体変換機3に流入する。熱媒体変換機3に流入した冷媒は、第2冷媒流路切替装置18a及び第2冷媒流路切替装置18bを通って、負荷側熱交換器15a及び負荷側熱交換器15bのそれぞれに流入し、熱媒体循環回路Bを循環する熱媒体に放熱し、高圧の液冷媒となる。高圧の液冷媒は、絞り装置16a及び絞り装置16bで膨張して低温低圧の二相冷媒となり、開閉装置17bを通って、熱媒体変換機3から流出する。そして、延長配管4を通って再び室外機1へ流入する。室外機1へ流入した冷媒は、第2接続配管4b及び逆止弁13cを通り、蒸発器として作用する熱源側熱交換器12に流入し、周囲の空気から吸熱して、低温低圧のガス冷媒となる。ガス冷媒は、第1冷媒流路切替装置11及びアキュムレータ19を介して圧縮機10へ再度吸入される。なお、熱媒体循環回路Bにおける熱媒体の動作は、全冷房運転モードの場合と同じである。全暖房運転モードでは、負荷側熱交換器15a及び負荷側熱交換器15bにおいて、熱媒体が冷媒によって加熱され、利用側熱交換器26a及び利用側熱交換器26bで室内空気に放熱して、室内空間7の暖房を行う。
冷房主体運転モードの場合、圧縮機10から吐出された高温高圧のガス冷媒は、第1冷媒流路切替装置11を介して熱源側熱交換器12に流入し、周囲の空気に放熱して凝縮し、二相冷媒となり、逆止弁13aを通って、室外機1から流出する。そして、延長配管4を通って熱媒体変換機3に流入する。熱媒体変換機3に流入した冷媒は、第2冷媒流路切替装置18bを通って凝縮器として作用する負荷側熱交換器15bに流入し、熱媒体循環回路Bを循環する熱媒体に放熱して高圧の液冷媒となる。高圧の液冷媒は、絞り装置16bで膨張して低温低圧の二相冷媒となる。二相冷媒は、絞り装置16aを介して蒸発器として作用する負荷側熱交換器15aに流入し、熱媒体循環回路Bを循環する熱媒体から吸熱して低圧のガス冷媒となり、第2冷媒流路切替装置18aを介して熱媒体変換機3から流出する。そして、延長配管4を通って再び室外機1へ流入する。室外機1へ流入した冷媒は、逆止弁13dを通って、第1冷媒流路切替装置11及びアキュムレータ19を介して、圧縮機10へ再度吸入される。
暖房主体運転モードの場合、圧縮機10から吐出された高温高圧のガス冷媒は、第1冷媒流路切替装置11を介して、第1接続配管4a及び逆止弁13bを通って、室外機1から流出する。そして、延長配管4を通って熱媒体変換機3に流入する。熱媒体変換機3に流入した冷媒は、第2冷媒流路切替装置18bを通って凝縮器として作用する負荷側熱交換器15bに流入し、熱媒体循環回路Bを循環する熱媒体に放熱して高圧の液冷媒となる。高圧の液冷媒は、絞り装置16bで膨張して低温低圧の二相冷媒となる。二相冷媒は、絞り装置16aを介して蒸発器として作用する負荷側熱交換器15aに流入し、熱媒体循環回路Bを循環する熱媒体から吸熱し、第2冷媒流路切替装置18aを介して熱媒体変換機3から流出する。そして、延長配管4を通って再び室外機1へ流入する。室外機1へ流入した冷媒は、第2接続配管4b及び逆止弁13cを通って、蒸発器として作用する熱源側熱交換器12に流入し、周囲の空気から吸熱して、低温低圧のガス冷媒となる。ガス冷媒は、第1冷媒流路切替装置11及びアキュムレータ19を介して圧縮機10へ再度吸入される。なお、熱媒体循環回路Bにおける熱媒体の動作、第1熱媒体流路切替装置22a~22d、第2熱媒体流路切替装置23a~23d、熱媒体流量調整装置25a~25d、及び、利用側熱交換器26a~26d、の動作は冷房主体運転モードと同一である。
本実施の形態における各運転モードにおいては、室外機1と熱媒体変換機3とを接続する延長配管4には冷媒が流れ、熱媒体変換機3と室内機2を接続する配管5には水や不凍液等の熱媒体が流れている。
