Patent ID: 10000108

Abstract:
A refrigeration cycle device includes an interior condenser that exchanges heat between a high-pressure refrigerant and ventilation air to heat the ventilation air, an exterior heat exchanger that exchanges heat between outside air and the refrigerant downstream of the interior condenser, an interior evaporator that exchanges heat between a low-pressure refrigerant downstream of the exterior heat exchanger and the ventilation air before passing through the interior condenser, and an internal heat exchanger that exchanges heat between the refrigerant flowing out of the exterior heat exchanger and the refrigerant flowing out of the interior evaporator. The refrigeration cycle device further includes a gas-liquid separator that separates the refrigerant at a downstream side of the interior condenser into gas and liquid phase refrigerants. In a dehumidification heating mode of evaporating the refrigerant at the exterior heat exchanger, the liquid-phase refrigerant separated by the gas-liquid separator flows into the exterior heat exchanger.
