Abstract

A refrigerating apparatus, wherein first and second expansion compressors (30, 40) with different volume ratios Vc / Ve are connected parallel with each other in a refrigerant circuit (10). The expansion compressors (30, 40) are so formed that their expanders (31, 41) are connected parallel with each other and also their compressors (32, 42) are connected parallel with each other. When the operatingconditions of the refrigerating apparatus are changed, a controller (60) regulates the ratio of the rotational speeds of the expansion compressors (30, 40). As a result, the refrigerating apparatus can be operated at a COP near an ideal efficiency.

Description

technical field

[0001] The present invention relates to a refrigerating apparatus including a fluid machine in which an expander and a compressor are connected together by a rotary shaft. Background technique

[0002] Conventionally, a refrigeration device including a refrigerant circuit that circulates a refrigerant to perform a refrigeration cycle is known, and such a refrigeration device is widely used in air conditioners and the like.

[0003] For example, in the refrigeration system disclosed in Patent Document 1, a positive displacement fluid is mechanically connected to a refrigerant circuit. The fluid machine consists of a rotating shaft mechanically connecting the expander and compressor together. And, the indoor heat exchanger and the outdoor heat exchanger are connected to the refrigerant circuit.

[0004] In this refrigerating apparatus, a refrigerating cycle is performed by a refrigerant circulation of a refrigerant circuit, and indoor cooling and heating are ...
