First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A refrigerating machine oil comprising a hydrocarbon base oil having a 90% distillation temperature of 270° C. or lower, wherein a ratio of a paraffin to a cycloparaffin in the refrigerating machine oil is 0.3 or more and 10 or less. 2 . The refrigerating machine oil according to claim 1 , wherein the hydrocarbon base oil has an initial boiling point of 140° C. or higher. 3 . The refrigerating machine oil according to claim 1 , further comprising a phosphorus-containing antiwear agent. 4 . The refrigerating machine oil according to claim 1 , wherein the refrigerating machine oil has a flash point of 70° C. or higher. 5 . The refrigerating machine oil according to claim 1 , wherein a content of a hydrocarbon having 12 to 16 carbon atoms in a hydrocarbon base oil contained in the refrigerating machine oil is 80% by mass or more. 6 . The refrigerating machine oil according to claim 1 , wherein the refrigerating machine oil has a difference between a 90% distillation temperature and a 10% distillation temperature of 5° C. or higher and 40° C. or lower. 7 . The refrigerating machine oil according to claim 1 , wherein the refrigerating machine oil has a carbon residue of 10% residual oil of 0.02% by mass or more. 8 . The refrigerating machine oil according to claim 1 , wherein a content of a n-paraffin in a hydrocarbon base oil contained in the refrigerating machine oil is 5% by mass or more and 50% by mass or less. 9 . The refrigerating machine oil according to claim 1 , wherein the refrigerating machine oil has a 90% distillation temperature of 270° C. or lower. 10 . A working fluid composition comprising: a refrigerating machine oil comprising a hydrocarbon base oil having a 90% distillation temperature of 270° C. or lower, wherein a ratio of a paraffin to a cycloparaffin in the refrigerating machine oil is 0.3 or more and 10 or less; and a refrigerant. 11 . The working fluid composition according to claim 10 , wherein the refrigerant comprises a hydrocarbon. 12 . The working fluid composition according to claim 10 , wherein the hydrocarbon base oil has an initial boiling point of 140° C. or higher. 13 . The working fluid composition according to claim 10 , the refrigerating machine oil further comprises a phosphorus-containing antiwear agent. 14 . The working fluid composition according to claim 10 , wherein the refrigerating machine oil has a flash point of 70° C. or higher. 15 . The working fluid composition according to claim 10 , wherein a content of a hydrocarbon having 12 to 16 carbon atoms in a hydrocarbon base oil contained in the refrigerating machine oil is 80% by mass or more. 16 . The working fluid composition according to claim 10 , wherein the refrigerating machine oil has a difference between a 90% distillation temperature and a 10% distillation temperature of 5° C. or higher and 40° C. or lower. 17 . The working fluid composition according to claim 10 , wherein the refrigerating machine oil has a carbon residue of 10% residual oil of 0.02% by mass or more. 18 . The working fluid composition according to claim 10 , wherein a content of a n-paraffin in a hydrocarbon base oil contained in the refrigerating machine oil is 5% by mass or more and 50% by mass or less. 19 . The working fluid composition according to claim 10 , wherein the refrigerating machine oil has a 90% distillation temperature of 270° C. or lower.
