To determine the overall heating load, and control the operation of either the first heat pump circuit 40 or the second heat pump circuit 50, or both the first heat pump circuit 40 and the second heat pump circuit 50 according to this. It is configured as follows.

  The defrosting operation control device 63 determines whether or not the outside air temperature detected by the outside air temperature sensor 57 of the second heat pump circuit 50 has reached a preset defrosting start temperature, and the defrosting start condition is established. If it is determined that the second heat pump circuit 50 is driven, the defrosting operation for switching the refrigerant flow path is performed, and the outside air temperature reaches the defrosting start temperature. In spite of the decrease, the outside air temperature sensor 57 has failed. As a result, frost adheres to the air heat source heat exchanger 55 and becomes a large lump of ice, causing the second heat pump circuit 50 to stop and stop. When the forced defrosting switch 64 of the recommon 60 is pressed for repair, the second heat pump circuit 50 starts the defrosting operation, melting a large block of ice in the air heat source heat exchanger 55, Completely without ice blocks When the service person visually confirms that the forced defrost switch 64 is released, the defrosting operation of the second heat pump circuit 50 is terminated, and the outside air temperature sensor 57 that has failed in this state is repaired. Or it is exchanged and the service is terminated, which is very easily performed.

Next, the operation of the composite heat source heat pump apparatus 1 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 will be described.
When the remote control 60 gives an instruction to heat the air-conditioned space by the heat radiating terminal 36, the control device 6 uses the ground heat source and the first heat pump circuit 40 and the air heat source based on the outside air temperature detected by the outside air temperature sensor 57. Of the second heat pump circuits 50 using the above, the one having the better heat collection efficiency is selected and operated as the heat source.

  For example, when the outside air temperature is not so low (for example, 5 ° C. or more) as in spring or autumn, and the heating load is small, the control device 6 operates only the second heat pump circuit 50 using the air heat source. Let In this case, the control device 6 starts driving the second compressor 53, the second expansion valve 54, the blower fan 56, and the heating circulation pump 32, and the heating operation is started. When the heating operation is started, the second heating heat exchanger 51 exchanges heat between the circulating liquid L circulated by the heating circulation pump 32 and the high-temperature and high-pressure second refrigerant C2 discharged from the second compressor 53, The heated circulating liquid L is supplied to the heat radiating terminal 36 to heat the air-conditioned space, and in the air heat source heat exchanger 55, the air sent by driving the blower fan 56 and the low-temperature and low-pressure discharged from the second expansion valve 54. The second refrigerant C2 is heat-exchanged, and the second refrigerant C2 is heated and evaporated by air heat. In this case, the circulating liquid L circulating in the heating circuit 30 also passes through the first heating heat exchanger 41. At this time, since the first heat pump circuit 40 is not operated, the first heating heat is not supplied. The exchanger 41 passes without being heated.

  On the other hand, when the outside air temperature is low as in winter (for example, 5 ° C. or less), the control device 6 operates only the first heat pump circuit 40 that uses the underground heat source. In this case, the control device 6 starts driving the first compressor 43, the first expansion valve 44, the underground heat circulation pump 22, and the heating circulation pump 32, and the heating operation is started. When the heating operation is started, the first heating heat exchanger 41 exchanges heat between the circulating liquid L circulated by the heating circulation pump 32 and the high-temperature and high-pressure first refrigerant C1 discharged from the first compressor 43, The heated circulating liquid L is supplied to the heat radiating terminal 36 to heat the air-conditioned space, and in the underground heat source heat exchanger 45, it is circulated by the underground heat circulation pump 22 and underground through the underground heat exchanger 23. The heat medium H1 that has collected heat and the low-temperature and low-pressure first refrigerant C1 discharged from the first expansion valve 44 exchange heat, and the first refrigerant C1 is heated and evaporated by underground heat. In this case, the circulating fluid L circulating in the heating circulation circuit 30 also passes through the second heating heat exchanger 51. At this time, since the second heat pump circuit 50 is not operated, the second heating heat The exchanger 51 passes through without being heated.

  Further, when the heating operation is started up or when either the first heat pump circuit 40 or the second heat pump circuit 50 is operated to perform the heating operation, the outside air temperature further decreases, and the heating load is increased. Thus, when a desired heating output cannot be obtained by only one operation, the control device 6 performs the heating operation in which both the first heat pump circuit 40 and the second heat pump circuit 50 are operated. In the case of the heating operation in which both the first heat pump circuit 40 and the second heat pump circuit 50 are operated as an example, the control device 6 includes the first compressor 43, the first expansion valve 44, the underground heat circulation pump 22, the first The 2 compressor 53, the 2nd expansion valve 54, the ventilation fan 56, and the heating circulation pump 32 are driven, and heating operation is performed. During the heating operation, in the first heating heat exchanger 41, the circulating fluid L circulated by the heating circulation pump 32 and the high-temperature and high-pressure first refrigerant C1 discharged from the first compressor 43 flow oppositely to generate heat. Exchange is performed and the circulating liquid L is heated, and in the second heating heat exchanger 51, the circulating liquid L circulated by the heating circulation pump 32 and the high-temperature and high-pressure second refrigerant discharged from the second compressor 53. C2 flows oppositely, heat exchange is performed, and the circulating liquid L is heated. As described above, the circulating liquid L circulating in the heating circuit 30 is heated by the first heating heat exchanger 41 and then further heated by the second heating heat exchanger 51 to be supplied to the heat radiating terminal 36. When the circulation liquid 36 is circulated, the heat of the circulating liquid L is radiated to the air-conditioned space, whereby the air-conditioned space is heated.

  Next, as a characteristic operation, a defrosting operation is performed to melt the frost generated in the air heat source heat exchanger 55 when the second heat pump circuit 50 used by the air heat source is operated to perform the heating operation. The operation of the composite heat source heat pump apparatus 1 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

  The heating operation of operating the second heat pump circuit 50 and driving the heating circulation pump 32 to heat the circulating fluid L in the second heating heat exchanger 51 and supplying the heated circulating fluid L to the heat radiating terminal 36. If the defrosting operation control device 63 determines that the defrosting start condition has been established from the outside air temperature detected by the outside air temperature sensor 57 during the process (step S1), the process proceeds to step S2 with YES and proceeds to the second step. It is confirmed whether or not the heat pump circuit 50 is being driven. If YES, a defrosting operation is performed in which the refrigerant flow path is switched by the four-way valve 58 in step S3.

  Then, when performing the defrosting operation, the defrosting operation control device 63 finishes the predetermined defrosting from the temperature of the second refrigerant C2 that has passed through the air heat source heat exchanger 55 detected by the second refrigerant temperature sensor 52b. It is determined that the condition is satisfied (step S4), and the process proceeds to step 5 with YES to finish the defrosting operation and return to the state before the defrosting. As described above, the second heat pump circuit 50 It rises quickly and quickly returns to heating operation.

  Next, the second refrigerant discharge temperature sensor 52a indicates that due to the failure of the outside air temperature sensor 57, the defrosting operation is not performed and a large ice block adheres to the air heat source heat exchanger 55 and the function of heat exchange cannot be performed. However, when the discharge temperature is lower than the set temperature, the abnormality is detected, the driving of the second heat pump circuit 50 is stopped, the abnormality is displayed, and the service person is called.

  The called service person presses the forced defrost switch 64 provided on the remote controller 60 to determine whether the forced defrost switch 64 is pressed in step S6 as shown in FIG. YES, the process proceeds to step S7, the defrosting operation is started by switching the four-way valve 58 of the second heat pump circuit 50, the ice block of the air heat source heat exchanger 55 is melted, and further detected by the second refrigerant temperature sensor 52b. It is determined from the temperature of the second refrigerant C2 that has circulated through the air heat source heat exchanger 55 that a predetermined defrosting termination condition has been established (step S8). The outside air temperature sensor 57 is repaired and replaced to end the service.

  Accordingly, it is not necessary to boil the hot water and melt the ice block of the air heat source heat exchanger 55, and the outside air temperature sensor 57 can be easily repaired and replaced using the defrosting operation of the second heat pump circuit 50. It is extremely easy to use.
