Problems solved by technology

[0009] However, according to the study of the inventors of the present application, in the outdoor heat exchanger described in the above-mentioned Patent Document 1, the outdoor heat exchanger in the heating operation (when the outdoor heat exchanger is made to function as an evaporator) and the cooling operation (When making the outdoor heat exchanger function as a condenser), the number of tubes in each refrigerant passage cannot be changed
Therefore, in each operation, the refrigerant flow in the outdoor heat exchanger cannot be optimized in detail.

[0022] use Figure 1 ~ Figure 3 A first embodiment of the present invention will be described. In the present embodiment, the vapor compression refrigeration cycle device 10 of the present invention is applied to the vehicle air conditioner 1 . In the vehicle air conditioner 1 , the refrigeration cycle device 10 plays a role of heating or cooling the blown air blown into the vehicle interior which is a space to be air-conditioned.

[0023] The refrigeration cycle device 10 includes a compressor 11 , an indoor condenser 12 , a fixed throttle valve 13 for heating, an outdoor heat exchanger 14 , and a fixed throttle valve 19 for cooling. In addition, the refrigeration cycle device 10 can switch the refrigerant flow path to perform a heating operation and a cooling operation. The heating operation is to heat the blown air to heat the vehicle interior, and the cooling operation is to cool the blown air to cool the vehicle. Indoor cooling operation. In addition, in figure 1 as w...

Abstract

Provided is a refrigeration cycle device, wherein a outdoor heat exchanger (14) is provided with a core part (41) configured by stacking a plurality of tubes (44). The core part (41) has a first corepart (411), a second core part (412), and a third core part (413), each of which is configured from a tube group comprising some of the plurality of tubes (44). The flow direction of refrigerant flowing through the second core part (412) reverses direction during a cooling operation in relation to that during a heating operation. The flow direction of refrigerant flowing through each of the firstcore part (411) and the third core part (413) is the same direction during the cooling operation as during the heating operation. This makes it possible to suitably adjust the heat exchange rate of the outdoor heat exchanger both during the heating operation and during the cooling operation.

Description

[0001] Cross-reference of related applications [0002] This application is based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2016-122860 filed on June 21, 2016, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0003] The present invention relates to a refrigeration cycle device including an outdoor heat exchanger for exchanging heat between refrigerant and external air. Background technique [0004] Conventionally, as an outdoor heat exchanger of a refrigeration cycle device, for example, Patent Document 1 discloses an outdoor heat exchanger that functions as an evaporator during a heating operation and functions as a condenser (radiator) during a cooling operation. )Play a role. [0005] In the outdoor heat exchanger described in this patent document 1, a plurality of partitions are provided inside the head tank, and a check valve is combined at a predetermined position in the plurality of partitions. The refrigerant flow direction releases the cut-o...
