Structure.
Fig. 2 is Mollier line chart (P-H line chart) of the cold-producing medium using the air conditioner of R32.
For example, when air conditioner 1 (referring to Fig. 1) carries out heating operation, the cold-producing medium (gas) of the state in point A1 by
Compressor 14 compresses, and temperature (specific enthalpy) and pressure rise, and become the state of point A2, are imported into indoor set 20.It is imported into indoor set
20 cold-producing medium (gas) becomes the state (liquid) of point A3, is imported into indoors in heat exchanger 21 with substantially isobaric condensation
Off-premises station 10.In the state of point A3, the cold-producing medium (liquid) for being directed to off-premises station 10 is reduced pressure by outdoor expansion valve 13, is become
The state of point A4, is vaporized by outdoor heat converter 11, becomes the state (gas) of point A1.So, in the sky for carrying out heating operation
In tune machine 1, cold-producing medium (R32) simultaneously changes in the state of point A1~A4, simultaneously circulates.That is, being pressed by compressor 14
When the cold-producing medium (gas) of contracting (point A1 → A2) condenses (point A2 → A3) by the indoor heat converter 21 of indoor set 20, heating is indoor
Air.
Now, R32 due to compared with R410A specific heat ratio big, so, when being compressed by compressor 14 (point A1 → A2), press
The temperature (discharge temperature Td) height (Td1) of the cold-producing medium of the outlet side of contracting machine 14.For example, discharge temperature Td height compared with R410A
10~15 DEG C or so.Accordingly, discharge temperature Td that there is the cold-producing medium being compressed by exceedes the permission ceiling temperature of compressor 14,
To the situation that compressor 14 applies excessive load.Therefore, when cold-producing medium uses R32, it is desirable to make the outlet side of compressor 14
Discharge temperature Td low (for example, Td1 → Td2).
For example, if the valve opening of outdoor expansion valve 13 becomes big, the temperature in outdoor expansion valve 13 is promoted to reduce, if Fig. 2
Shown in middle dotted line, temperature or the mass dryness fraction step-down (point A1 ') of the cold-producing medium of the entrance side of compressor 14 can be made.Accordingly, compressor
The discharge temperature Td step-down (point A2 → A2 ') of the cold-producing medium of 14 outlet side.
But, if the state of the cold-producing medium of the entrance side of compressor 14 (point A1 ') becomes the temperature lower than saturated line C100
(or specific enthalpy), then the mass dryness fraction of the cold-producing medium of the entrance side of compressor 14 is lower than 1.00.
The containing ratio of the liquid component of the low cold-producing medium of mass dryness fraction is more, if the low cold-producing medium of mass dryness fraction flows into compressor 14, by
The refrigerator oil of compressor 14 is diluted by the liquid component contained by the cold-producing medium, and producing the abrasion in promotion mechanism portion etc. affects.?
That is, if the low cold-producing medium of mass dryness fraction flows into compressor 14, the load relative to compressor 14 becomes big.Thus, compressor 14
The superfluously low state of mass dryness fraction of cold-producing medium of entrance side bad.
Therefore, the change state of abrasion (promote etc.) according to the mechanical performance of investigation compressor 14, compressor 14 enter
The phase that the viscosity of the refrigerator oil in the mass dryness fraction (hereinafter referred to as " suction mass dryness fraction Xs ") of the cold-producing medium of mouth side and compressor 14 reduces
The experiment of pass relation, makes suction mass dryness fraction Xs of the degraded in mechanical properties (or, deteriorate in allowed band) of compressor 14
Boundary value is 0.85.In other words, it is known that if suction mass dryness fraction Xs is compressed can allow for giving higher than 0.85 (Xs > 0.85)
The scope that machine 14 affects, can make the load relative to compressor 14 little.
Therefore, the structure operated in the state of high in suction mass dryness fraction Xs made than 0.85 by the air conditioner 1 of the present embodiment.Separately
Outward, the double dot dash line shown in Fig. 2 represents " etc. mass dryness fraction line C85 " that mass dryness fraction is 0.85.
Fig. 3 is the pressure of the cold-producing medium of the pressure (suction pressure Ps) and outlet side of the cold-producing medium of the entrance side of compressor
Mollier line chart in the case of (discharge pressure Pd) change.
For example, as shown in figure 3, discharge temperature Td of the cold-producing medium of the outlet side of compressor 14 is being maintained compressor 14
Allow ceiling temperature below ceiling temperature (Tdmax) in the case of, represent compressor 14 outlet side cold-producing medium shape
Point (the point A2-n of state:N=1,2,3 ...) generating state change, notationally limit temperature (Tdmax) so as to discharge temperature Td
On isothermal line (single dotted broken line).
For example, in the case where the permission ceiling temperature of compressor 14 is 120 DEG C, by the upper of discharge temperature Td of cold-producing medium
Limit temperature is set as 100 DEG C or so (" Tdmax=100 [DEG C] ").
In addition, saturated line C100 is mass dryness fraction become 1.00 line, represent " etc. mass dryness fraction line C85 " and the saturated line of mass dryness fraction 0.85
C100 is compared, specific enthalpy low (being illustrated with double dot dash line).And, suction mass dryness fraction Xs to be made is 0.85, as long as making compressor 14
The temperature (specific enthalpy) of the cold-producing medium of entrance become represent mass dryness fraction 0.85 etc. become the point of suction pressure Ps on mass dryness fraction line C85
(point A1-n:N=1,2,3 ...) shown in temperature.
Determine pressure ratio ε (the discharge pressure Pd/ suction pressure of compressor 14 from the point A1-n and point A2-n for so determining
Ps).That is, determining pressure ratio ε relative to suction pressure Ps.
As shown in Figure 3, although suction pressure Ps higher (Ps1 → Ps2 → Ps3), discharge pressure Pd height (Pd1 can more be made
→ Pd2 → Pd3), but compared with the ratio risen with suction pressure Ps, the ratio that discharge pressure Pd rises is little.That is, inhaling
Enter pressure Ps higher, be more necessary to make pressure ratio ε little.
Fig. 4 is to represent that suction mass dryness fraction becomes the curve chart of 0.85 suction pressure and the relation of pressure ratio, and transverse axis represents suction
Enter pressure Ps, the longitudinal axis represents pressure ratio ε (discharge pressure Pd/ suction pressure Ps).
In addition, " the ε U " shown in Fig. 4 is the maximum of pressure ratio ε.In addition, solid line represents that suction mass dryness fraction Xs is higher than 0.85
The higher limit (pressure ratio upper limit ε max) of pressure ratio ε.Pressure ratio upper limit ε max is to limit pressure ratio ε, to make suction mass dryness fraction Xs
The higher limit higher than 0.85, limits the compression (rotary speed Fr of compressor 14) of cold-producing medium, to make pressure ratio ε become pressure
Than below upper limit ε max, accordingly, suction mass dryness fraction Xs is higher than 0.85.
And, " PsL " is suction pressure Ps that pressure ratio ε for making suction mass dryness fraction Xs be 0.85 becomes maximum " ε U ".?
That is, suction pressure Ps " PsL " area below is to exceed maximum for pressure ratio ε for making suction mass dryness fraction Xs become 0.85
The region of " ε U ".
In addition, " PsU " is the higher limit of suction pressure Ps in air conditioner 1.And, suction pressure Ps shown in Fig. 4
Lower limit " PsL " and higher limit " PsU ", the maximum " ε U " of pressure ratio ε are the characteristic values of air conditioner 1, are empty according to each
The design load that tune machine 1 determines.
As shown in figure 4, pressure ratio upper limit ε max is lower limit " PsL " area below (Ps PsL) in suction pressure Ps
Become the maximum " ε U " (ε max=ε U) of pressure ratio, in the suction pressure Ps region higher than lower limit " PsL " (Ps > PsL),
Represented by following formula (1).
ε max=ε U- (ε U- ε L)/(PsU-PsL) × (Ps-PsL) ... (1)
As shown in figure 3, as suction pressure Ps is higher, pressure ratio ε is less, so, as shown in figure 4, pressure ratio upper limit ε
Max is also that suction pressure Ps is higher and lower.
And, in the air conditioner 1 (referring to Fig. 1) of the present embodiment, control device 1a (referring to Fig. 1) is with compression refrigerant
(R32), rotary speed Fr to make pressure ratio upper limit ε max of the pressure ratio ε ratio shown in formula (1) little, operate compressor 14
(referring to Fig. 1).That is, control device 1a adjusts rotary speed Fr of compressor 14, to make pressure ratio ε than in pressure ratio
ε max are little for limit.Accordingly, suction mass dryness fraction Xs of air conditioner 1 is maintained must be higher than 0.85.
In addition, control device 1a (referring to Fig. 1) can also be rotary speed Fr for adjusting compressor 14, to make pressure ratio
ε is close to the structure of pressure ratio upper limit ε max.For example, less than pressure ratio upper limit ε max in pressure ratio ε, and require to increase air conditioning capacity
When, control device 1a can also be that rotary speed Fr for making compressor 14 rises, and improve the structure of pressure ratio ε.So constituting
In the case of control device 1a, air conditioner 1 (referring to Fig. 1) operates in the state of suction mass dryness fraction Xs is close to 0.85.
In the air conditioner 1 shown in Fig. 1, discharge pressure sensor 10pa measures discharge pressure Pd, and suction pressure sensing
Device 10pb measures suction pressure Ps.And, control device 1a adjusts rotary speed Fr of compressor 14, makes air conditioner 1 heat fortune
Turn, to make variable and the metering of discharge pressure sensor 10pa from suction pressure Ps of suction pressure sensor 10pb meterings
Discharge pressure Pd variable calculation pressure ratio ε (discharge pressure Pd (variable)/suction pressure Ps (variable)) become
The pressure ratio upper limit ε max calculated by formula (1).

And higher limit is suitably set according to required calculation precision of suction mass dryness fraction Xs etc..For example, if making the lower limit be
" 0.999 ", makes higher limit for " 1.001 ", then control device 1a can estimate (calculation) suction and do according to the error of " ± 0.1% "
Degree Xs.
And, control device 1a (referring to Fig. 1) simultaneously sucks mass dryness fraction Xs by program presumption (calculation) shown in Fig. 6, and one
Face makes air conditioner 1 (referring to Fig. 1) operating (for example, heating operation).Now, control device 1a controls air conditioner 1, to make presumption
Suction mass dryness fraction Xs higher than 0.85.Specifically, control device 1a adjusts rotary speed Fr of compressor 14, adjusts pressure ratio ε,
Higher than 0.85 by calculating estimated suction mass dryness fraction Xs to make.
Control device 1a is being declined by calculating estimated suction mass dryness fraction Xs, when being close to 0.85, makes the rotation of compressor 14
Rotary speed Fr reduces, and makes pressure ratio ε step-down.For example, control device 1a controls compressor 14, to make to become the pressure ratio upper limit
Rotary speed Fr of the compressor 14 of the rotary speed Fr operating of ε max reduces.Accordingly, discharge pressure Pd reduces, compressor 14
The cold-producing medium of entrance side is difficult to humidity, and suction mass dryness fraction Xs rises.
So, by control device 1a (referring to Fig. 1) presumption suction mass dryness fractions Xs, and air conditioner 1 (referring to Fig. 1) operating is made,
Suction mass dryness fraction Xs to make presumption is higher than 0.85, and more reliably can maintain suction mass dryness fraction Xs must be higher than 0.85.
In addition, the control device 1a (referring to Fig. 1) of the present embodiment can also make air conditioner 1 (referring to Fig. 1) heating operation,
To make discharge degree of superheat TdSH (=Td-Tc) of the difference as condensation temperature Tc and discharge temperature Td less than set in advance
The structure of desired value.
Fig. 7 is the curve chart of the relation for representing discharge temperature, condensation temperature and discharging the degree of superheat, (the row with the longitudinal axis as temperature
Go out temperature Td, condensation temperature Tc, discharge degree of superheat TdSH), with transverse axis as discharge pressure Pd.
In addition, the solid line of Fig. 7 represents that condensation temperature Tc, single dotted broken line represent discharge temperature Td.And, dotted line represents each
The desired value (target superheat degree SHtgt) of discharge degree of superheat TdSH of discharge pressure Pd.As it was previously stated, discharge degree of superheat TdSH being
The difference (Td-Tc) of discharge temperature Td and condensation temperature Tc under identical discharge pressure Pd, its target superheat degree SHtgt is such as
Set as shown in dotted line in Fig. 7.
Condensation temperature Tc is the intrinsic value of the cold-producing medium accordingly determined with discharge pressure Pd (physical property values), control dress
Variable calculation condensation temperature Tc of discharge pressure Pd that 1a can be measured is put according to discharge pressure sensor 10pa (referring to Fig. 1).
For example, control device 1a can be discharged from representing according to discharge pressure Pd of discharge pressure sensor 10pa metering
Approximate expression calculation condensation temperature Tc of the relation of pressure Pd and condensation temperature Tc.It is preferred that the approximate expression is the characteristic type as R32
The approximate expression being preset.
In addition, in shown in Fig. 7, due to being that setting (discharges pressure in border in discharge pressure Pd:When Pda), row
Going out temperature Td becomes the ceiling temperature (Tdmax) of compressor 14, so, it is high pressure (Pda) to be discharged in discharge pressure Pd than border
Region, target setting degree of superheat SHtgt, to make discharge temperature Td become ceiling temperature (Tdmax).
Discharge temperature Td and root that control device 1a (referring to Fig. 1) is measured from discharge temperature sensor 10ta (referring to Fig. 1)
Degree of superheat TdSH is discharged according to the condensation temperature Tc calculation that the variable of discharge pressure Pd is calculated.And, control device 1a makes air-conditioning
Machine 1 (referring to Fig. 1) heating operation, to make discharge degree of superheat TdSH of calculation be close to target superheat degree shown in dotted lines in Figure 7
SHtgt.For example, in the case where discharge degree of superheat TdSH of calculation is lower than target superheat degree SHtgt, control device 1a makes outdoor
The valve opening of expansion valve 13 diminishes.The temperature of the cold-producing medium of outdoor expansion valve 13 is suppressed to reduce, discharge temperature Td rises.The opposing party
Face, as suction pressure Ps and discharge pressure Pd are not changed in such degree, so, the change of condensation temperature Tc is little.According to
This, discharges degree of superheat TdSH (Td-Tc) and rises, be close to target superheat degree SHtgt.
So, control device 1a controls outdoor expansion valve 13, adjusts its valve opening, to make the discharge degree of superheat of calculation
TdSH is maintained at the vicinity of target superheat degree SHtgt.
For example, in the upper limit (ceiling temperature) for setting discharge temperature Td, the rotary speed of compressor 14 (referring to Fig. 1) is adjusted
Fr, so that in the case that discharge temperature Td becomes ceiling temperature, with the change of rotary speed Fr of compressor 14, discharge pressure
Pd and the change of discharge temperature Td.And, suction mass dryness fraction Xs is accordingly changed with both discharge pressure Pd and discharge temperature Td.According to
This, in order to will suction mass dryness fraction Xs maintain must be higher than 0.85, control device 1a (referring to Fig. 1) synthetically adjusts discharge pressure Pd and row
Go out temperature Td, the control of air conditioner 1 (referring to Fig. 1) becomes complicated.
On the other hand, the valve opening of outdoor expansion valve 13 (referring to Fig. 1), the row of making, in target setting degree of superheat SHtgt, are adjusted
Go out in the case that degree of superheat TdSH is close to target superheat degree SHtgt, discharge pressure Pd is not changed in such degree, discharge temperature
Td changes.Therefore, suction mass dryness fraction Xs is accordingly changed with discharge pressure Pd.
Thus, suction mass dryness fraction Xs is maintained by control device 1a (referring to Fig. 1) as long as adjusting the valve opening of outdoor expansion valve 13
Must be higher than 0.85, the control of air conditioner 1 (referring to Fig. 1) becomes simple.
In addition, as it was previously stated, make control device 1a (referring to Fig. 1) adjust compressor 14 rotary speed Fr, to make
Pressure ratio ε is close to the structure of pressure ratio upper limit ε max, further, can also be control device 1a adjust outdoor expansion valve 13 valve open
Degree, to make discharge degree of superheat TdSH be close to the structure of target superheat degree SHtgt.
For example, less than pressure ratio upper limit ε max in pressure ratio ε, discharge degree of superheat TdSH of calculation is than target superheat degree
SHtgt hours, control device 1a rise rotary speed Fr of compressor 14, improve pressure ratio ε, and make outdoor expansion valve 13
Valve opening diminishes, and discharge degree of superheat TdSH is increased.
According to the structure, pressure ratio ε is maintained at the vicinity of pressure ratio upper limit ε max, discharges degree of superheat TdSH and is maintained at
The vicinity of target superheat degree SHtgt.Accordingly, control device 1a (referring to Fig. 1) can be dry by the suction of air conditioner 1 (referring to Fig. 1)
Degree Xs is maintained close to 0.85 state, discharge temperature Td can be set to height.Accordingly, air conditioner 1 is most in discharge temperature Td
May operate in the state of height, can flexibly use evaporation latent heat to maximum limit, realize the operating condition of efficiency high.
As described above, the control device 1a of the present embodiment shown in Fig. 1 is when 1 heating operation of air conditioner is made, control compression
