Abstract
There is provided an apparatus where a first cooler and a second cooler are provided in a refrigeration circuit and difluoromethane having its temperature lowered by these devices is let into a rotary compressor and compressed therein. As a result, the apparatus with high performance and reliability is provided without impairment of the chemical stability of lubricant oil or difluoromethane if the difluoromethane is used as a refrigerant.
Claims3
A refrigeration apparatus wherein difluoromethane is circulated as refrigerant in a refrigeration circuit in which a single compressor having a two-rotary cylinder, a condenser, an expansion valve and a heat exchanger are connected in an annular arrangement with refrigerant pipes, comprising:
- two cylinders of said two-rotary cylinder are connected in series between said condenser and said heat exchanger and compress said refrigerant individually, and
- said apparatus further comprises a first cooler for cooling the refrigerant flowing from said cylinder connecting said heat exchanger of said compressor and the refrigerant having been cooled by said first cooler is supplied to another cylinder thereof.
