Since the first on-off valve 11 is open and the fifth on-off valve 15 is closed, all of the gas single-phase refrigerant that has flowed into the first pipe passes through the second pipe to the first distributor 3a. It flows in and is condensed by exchanging heat with the outside air in the first outdoor heat exchanger 3.
- the liquid single-phase refrigerant or the gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant condensed in the first outdoor heat exchanger 3 passes through the second distributor 3b and flows into the fourth pipeline from the fourth port P4. Since the third on-off valve 13 and the seventh on-off valve 17 are open and the fourth on-off valve 14 and the sixth on-off valve 16 are closed, all of the liquid single-phase refrigerant or the gas-liquid two-phase refrigerant is the fourth The liquid flows out from the second port P2 through the pipe line and the first pipe line.

- the third on-off valve 13, the fourth on-off valve 14, and the seventh on-off valve 17 are open and the sixth on-off valve 16 is closed.

実施の形態2に係る冷凍サイクル装置101は、実施の形態1に係る冷凍サイクル装置100と基本的に同様の構成を備えるが、上記冷媒回路が第2流路切替部10に替えて第2流路切替部20を含み、かつ第4熱交換部としての第3室外熱交換器5をさらに含む点で異なる。
第2流路切替部20は、上記第1管路、上記第2管路、上記第3管路、上記第4管路、上記第5管路、第1開閉弁11、第2開閉弁12、第3開閉弁13、第4開閉弁14、第5開閉弁15、第6開閉弁16、および第7開閉弁17に加え、第6管路、第7管路、第8開閉弁18および第9開閉弁19をさらに含む。
<冷房運転>
冷凍サイクル装置101が冷房運転されるときには、冷房負荷に応じて、上記第3状態、上記第5状態、上記第6状態または上記第7状態が実現される。冷房負荷が比較的高い場合には、上記第3状態が選択される。上記第3状態は、例えば全冷房運転時に実現される。上記第5状態、上記第6状態および上記第7状態は、例えば冷房主体運転時に実現される。
冷凍サイクル装置101が暖房運転されるときには、上記第4状態が実現される。図10に示されるように、上記第4状態では、第1室外熱交換器3、第2室外熱交換器4および第3室外熱交換器5が上記第1回路部において並列に接続される。具体的には、圧縮機1から吐出されたガス単相冷媒は、図1に示される第1室内熱交換器6aおよび第2室内熱交換器6bの少なくともいずれかにて凝縮され、液単相冷媒となる。液単相冷媒は、第1減圧部7aまたは第2減圧部7bにて減圧され、気液2相冷媒となる。気液2相冷媒は、第2配管C2を通って第6ポートP6から第2流路切替部10の上記第1管路に流入する。
冷凍サイクル装置101によれば、冷凍サイクル装置100と基本的に同様の構成を備えるため、冷凍サイクル装置100と同様の効果を奏することができる。
冷凍サイクル装置100,101は、第1流路切替部として四方弁2を備えているが、これに限られるものではない。第1流路切替部は、上記第1状態と上記第2状態とを切替可能な限りにおいて、任意の構成を備えていればよく、例えば複数の開閉弁により構成されていてもよい。
