Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Air conditioner for conditioning a space inside a building includes a heat source unit and at least one indoor unit. The heat source unit has a heat exchanger unit and a compressor unit. The heat exchanger unit includes a first heat exchanger disposed in a first casing and configured to exchange heat with a heat source. The compressor unit includes a compressor disposed in a second casing separate from the first casing, the heat exchanger unit and the compressor unit being fluidly connected via a first liquid refrigerant pipe and a first gaseous refrigerant pipe. At least one indoor unit has a second heat exchanger configured to exchange heat with the space to be conditioned and being fluidly communicated to the heat exchanger unit and/or the compressor unit via a second liquid refrigerant pipe and a second gaseous refrigerant pipe. The outer diameter of the first liquid refrigerant pipe is larger than the outer diameter of the second liquid refrigerant pipe and/or the outer diameter of the first gaseous refrigerant pipe is larger than the outer diameter of the second gaseous refrigerant pipe.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. An air conditioner for conditioning a space inside a building comprising: a heat source unit having a heat exchanger unit comprising a first heat exchanger disposed in a first casing and configured to exchange heat with a heat source and a compressor unit comprising a compressor disposed in a second casing separate from the first casing, the heat exchanger unit and the compressor unit being fluidly connected via a first liquid refrigerant pipe and/or a first gaseous refrigerant pipe; and at least one indoor unit having a second heat exchanger configured to exchange heat with the space to be conditioned and being fluidly communicated to the heat exchanger unit and/or the compressor unit via a second liquid refrigerant pipe and a second gaseous refrigerant pipe, wherein the outer diameter of the first liquid refrigerant pipe is larger than the outer diameter of the second liquid refrigerant pipe and/or the outer diameter of the first gaseous refrigerant pipe is larger than the outer diameter of the second gaseous refrigerant pipe. 2. The air conditioner according to claim 1 , wherein outer diameter of the first liquid refrigerant pipe is between 30% to 70% larger than the outer diameter of the second liquid refrigerant pipe. 3. The air conditioner according to claim 2 , wherein the outer diameter of the first gaseous refrigerant pipe is between 15% to 45% larger than the outer diameter of the second gaseous refrigerant piping. 4. The air conditioner according to claim 1 , wherein the outer diameter of the first gaseous refrigerant pipe is between 15% to 45% larger than the outer diameter of the second gaseous refrigerant piping.
