Abstract:
A refrigerant cycle apparatus comprising a condenser (2) which cools the superheated refrigerant gas discharged from a compressor (1) to condense the superheated refrigerant gas, and a liquid receiver (31) which separates gas and liquid in the refrigerant which has passed through said condenser (2) to accumulate the liquid refrigerant, the refrigerant cycle apparatus further comprising an upper refrigerant flow-in means (32) allowing the refrigerant which has passed through said condenser (2) to flow into the upper part of said liquid receiver (31) and a lower refrigerant flow-in means (33, 330) allowing the refrigerant which has passed through said condenser (2) to flow into the lower part of said liquid receiver (31), wherein the flow rate (Gr1) of refrigerant flowing into the upper part of said liquid receiver (31) from said upper refrigerant flow-in means (32) is set at a value between 30 kg/h and 110 kg/h.
