Therefore, it is determined by the above-described operation that the transfer of the refrigerant has been completed and the refrigerant has been properly distributed, and the operation proceeds to step S204 and subsequent steps in FIG. 4 (step S710).

Abstract

L'invention porte sur un dispositif de climatisation dans lequel, pendant des opérations de refroidissement, un dispositif de commande (27) détermine la valeur augmentée/diminuée de la fréquence d'un compresseur (1) de premières valeurs augmentées/diminuées à des troisièmes valeurs augmentées/diminuées et met à jour la fréquence du compresseur (1) sur la base de ladite valeur augmentée/diminuée. La première valeur augmentée/diminuée est calculée sur la base de la température d'évaporation calculée sur la base de la pression détectée par un premier capteur de pression (15), d'une température d'évaporation cible prédéfinie et de la température de l'air extérieur détectée par une première sonde de température (17). La deuxième valeur augmentée/diminuée est calculée sur la base de la température d'évaporation, de la température d'évaporation cible et du degré de surfusion du côté sortie d'un échangeur de chaleur extérieur (5), qui est déterminé par la température de condensation calculée sur la base de la pression détectée par un second capteur de pression (16) et la température détectée par une deuxième sonde de température (18). La troisième valeur augmentée/diminuée est calculée sur la base de la température d'évaporation, de la température d'évaporation cible et du degré de surfusion du côté sortie d'un échangeur de chaleur à haute et basse pression (6) qui est calculé par la température de condensation et la température détectée par une troisième sonde de température (19).
