Further, the heat medium pressurized and discharged by the pump 21b passes through the stop valve 24b via the flow path switching valve 22b and flows into the use side heat exchanger 26b.

- the use side heat exchanger 26a ⁇ 26d may be installed upstream.
- FIG. 8 is a flowchart illustrating an example of the flow of the switching control process of the pump 21 of the air conditioning apparatus 100. Based on FIG. 8, the switching control of the pump 21 when the air-conditioning apparatus 100 is at a low flow rate will be described.
- the main body of the switching control process of the pump 21 is the control device 60.
- STEP1 the air conditioner 100 starts the air conditioning operation, and the compressor 10 starts to start. Immediately after the compressor 10 is started, the air conditioning apparatus 100 operates, for example, a maximum number of pumps 21 in order to flow a large amount of heat medium.
- STEP2 In STEP 2, the operation of the maximum number of pumps 21 (two pumps 21a and 21b in FIGS. 3 to 7) is started, and the accumulated time of each operation time is recorded.
- STEP3 In STEP 3, the current operation is repeated until a certain time has elapsed.
- STEP4 it is confirmed whether or not the operation mode in which all the pumps 21 are used for cooling or heating, that is, the cooling only operation mode or the heating operation. If it is the all-cooling operation mode or the all-warm operation mode, the process proceeds to STEP5, and if not, the current operation is maintained.
- STEP5 it is determined whether or not the operating capacity of the indoor unit 2 is smaller than a predetermined value X.
- the value of the predetermined value X is an index for switching the number of operating pumps 21 and is arbitrarily set according to the actual performance of the air conditioner 100. If it is equal to or less than the predetermined value X, the process proceeds to STEP 6; otherwise, the process proceeds to STEP 10.
- the predetermined value X is arbitrarily set according to the flow rate characteristics of the pump 21, the length of the water pipe 5, and the capacity of the connected indoor unit 2.
- This STEP 6 is a process performed when it is determined that the circulation amount of the heat medium is too large for the operation capacity of the indoor unit 2.
- STEP7 In these STEPs 7 and 8, rotation control is performed in order to make the operation time of the pump 21 comparable.
- the priority order of the pumps 21 is determined by the accumulated operation time of the pumps 21. Alternatively, the number of activations of the pump 21 may be counted, and the priority order of the pumps 21 may be determined based on the number of activations of the pump 21.
- STEP8 In STEP8, the pump 21 with the lower priority is stopped, and the process proceeds to STEP9. For example, when the pump 21a and the pump 21b are operating and the priority of the pump 21a is lower than the priority of the pump 21b, the pump 21a is stopped at STEP 8a. For example, when the pump 21a and the pump 21b are operating and the priority order of the pump 21b is lower than the priority order of the pump 21a, the pump 21b is stopped in STEP 8b.
- STEP 9 it is determined whether or not the operating capacity of the indoor unit 2 has changed. If there is a change in the operating capacity of the indoor unit 2, the process returns to STEP 4 to make another determination.
- STEP 10 In STEPs 10 to 12, the pump 21 is operated by one unit. However, the operation capacity of the indoor unit 2 is increased, and control is performed when the number of the pumps 21 is switched from one unit to two units.
- the operating capacity of the indoor unit 2 is greater than a predetermined value X and is greater than or equal to a numerical value (hereinafter referred to as a numerical value C) that takes into account the differential.
- the differential is provided to stabilize the operation. If a differential is provided, frequent switching of the number of operating pumps 21 can be suppressed.
- the operating capacity ( ⁇ Qj) of the indoor unit 2 is larger than the predetermined value X and is greater than or equal to the numerical value C, the process proceeds to STEP 11, and if not, the process proceeds to STEP 9 without doing anything.
- the numerical value C is used in order not to frequently switch the number of the pumps 21 to be operated, and is arbitrarily set depending on the actual performance of the air conditioner 100. That is, the numerical value C is for reducing the number of times the pump 21 is started and stopped, and is determined by the flow rate characteristic (maximum circulation amount) of the pump 21 and the allowable total pipe length (pressure loss of the entire water circuit).
- STEP11 In STEP 11, it is determined whether the pump 21 is operating at the maximum number of operating units or not. If the pump 21 is operating with the maximum number of operating units, the process proceeds to STEP 9 without doing anything. If the pump 21 is not operating at the maximum number of operating units, the process proceeds to STEP12.
- STEP12 In STEP 12, the stopped pump 21 is started. However, in order to suppress a sudden rise in water pressure, the pump 21 is started at the lowest input (lowest voltage). Thereafter, the process proceeds to STEP9. And this control is complete
- FIG. 12 In STEP 12, the stopped pump 21 is started. However, in order to suppress a sudden rise in water pressure, the pump 21 is started at the lowest input (lowest voltage). Thereafter, the process proceeds to STEP9. And this control is complete
- switching control of the pump 21 when there are two pumps 21 has been described.
- the number of pumps 21a is not limited to two, and three or more pumps 21 may be used. Similar switching control can be realized.
- the air conditioner 100 switches the number of pumps 21 to be operated according to the operating capacity of the connected indoor unit 2, it is possible to realize a highly efficient operation with reduced power consumption of the pump. In particular, the effect at a low flow rate of the heat medium is great. In addition, since the current operation mode of the connected indoor unit 2 is taken into consideration, further improvement in operation efficiency can be expected.
- the case where both the first temperature sensor 31 and the second temperature sensor 32 are installed has been described.
- the first temperature sensor 31 or the second temperature sensor is used. It suffices that at least one of the sensors 32 is installed, and the other temperature detecting means does not have to be installed.

室内機2には、それぞれ利用側熱交換器26が搭載されている。この利用側熱交換器26は、配管5を介して第2中継ユニット3bの止め弁24及び流量調整弁25と接続するようになっている。この利用側熱交換器26は、図示省略のファン等の送風機から供給される空気と熱媒体との間で熱交換を行ない、空調対象域に供給するための暖房空気あるいは冷房空気を生成するものである。
中継ユニット3は、第1中継ユニット3aと、第2中継ユニット3bとで、筐体を分けて構成されている。このように構成することにより、上述したように1つの第1中継ユニット3aに対し、複数の第2中継ユニット3bを接続することができる。第1中継ユニット3aには、気液分離器14と、膨張弁16eと、が設けられている。第2中継ユニット3bには、2つの中間熱交換器15と、4つの膨張弁16と、2つのポンプ21と、4つの流路切替弁22と、4つの流路切替弁23と、4つの止め弁24と、4つの流量調整弁25と、が設けられている。

以下で説明するように、空気調和装置100は、幾つかの運転モードを具備している。これらの運転モードにおいては、熱源装置1と中継ユニット3とを接続する冷媒配管4には熱源側冷媒が流れている。
空気調和装置100が実行する幾つかの運転モードにおいては、中継ユニット3と室内機2を接続する配管5には水や不凍液等の熱媒体が流れている。
熱源側冷媒としては、たとえばR410A、R407C、R404A等のHFC(ハイドロフルオロカーボン)冷媒、R22、R134a等のHCFC(ハイドロクロロフルオロカーボン)冷媒、化学式内に二重結合を含むCF3CF=CH2等の地球温暖化係数が比較的小さい値とされている冷媒あるいはその混合物、もしくは、炭化水素やヘリウム、二酸化炭素等のような自然冷媒等を用いることができる。

STEP1では、空気調和装置100が空調運転を開始し、圧縮機10が起動を始める。圧縮機10の起動直後は、熱媒体の流量を多めに流すため、空気調和装置100では、例えばポンプ21を最大運転台数で運転する。
STEP2では、最大運転台数のポンプ21(図3~7では、ポンプ21a、ポンプ21bの2台)の運転が開始され、それぞれの運転時間の積算時間を記録する。
STEP3では、一定時間経過するまで現状の運転を繰り返す。
STEP4では、全部のポンプ21を冷房または暖房として使う運転モード、つまり全冷房運転モードまたは全暖運転であるかどうかを確認する。
全冷房運転モードまたは全暖運転モードであるならばSTEP5へ移行し、そうでない場合は現状の運転を維持する。
STEP5では、室内機2の運転容量が予め定めた所定値Xよりも小さいかどうか判定する。所定値Xの値は、ポンプ21の運転台数を切り替える指標であり、空気調和装置100の実際のパフォーマンスによって任意に設定される。
所定値X以下であればSTEP6へ移行し、そうでない場合はSTEP10へ移行する。
なお、所定値Xは、ポンプ21の流量特性、水配管5の長さ、接続されている室内機2の容量によって任意に設定される。
このSTEP6は、室内機2の運転容量に対して熱媒体の循環量が多すぎると判定された場合の処理である。
ここでは、ポンプ21が元々最大運転台数で運転していたかそうでないかを判断する。
ポンプ21が元々最大運転台数で運転していた場合にはSTEP7へ、そうでない場合はSTEP9へ移行する。
このSTEP7、8では、ポンプ21の運転時間を同程度とするため、ローテーション制御を実施する。
まず、STEP7では、運転しているポンプ21の優先順位どちらが高いか評価する。
そして、優先順位が低い方のポンプ21を停止させる。
なお、ポンプ21の優先順位は、ポンプ21の積算運転時間によって決定する。または、ポンプ21の起動回数をカウントし、ポンプ21の起動回数によってポンプ21の優先順位を決定してもよい。
STEP8では、優先順位が低い方のポンプ21を停止し、STEP9へ移行する。
例えば、ポンプ21a、ポンプ21bが運転している場合において、ポンプ21aの優先順位が、ポンプ21bの優先順位よりも低い場合、STEP8aでポンプ21aを停止させる。
例えば、ポンプ21a、ポンプ21bが運転している場合において、ポンプ21bの優先順位が、ポンプ21aの優先順位よりも低い場合、STEP8bでポンプ21bを停止させる。
STEP9では、室内機2の運転容量に変化があったかどうかを判定する。
室内機2の運転容量に変化があった場合には、もう一度判定するためSTEP4へ戻る。
このSTEP10~12では、ポンプ21が1台で運転していたが、室内機2の運転容量が大きくなり、ポンプ21の運転台数を1台から2台へ切り替える際の制御を実施する。
ディファレンシャルは、運転を安定させるために設けられている。ディファレンシャルを設けておけば、頻繁なポンプ21の運転台数の切り替えを抑制することができる。
室内機2の運転用容量(ΣQj)が所定値Xよりも大きく、数値C以上であればSTEP11へ、そうでない場合には何もせずにSTEP9へ移行する。
なお、数値Cは、ポンプ21の運転台数を頻繁に切り替えないために使用されるものであり、空気調和装置100の実際のパフォーマンスによって任意に設定される。つまり、数値Cは、ポンプ21の発停回数を減少させるためのものであり、ポンプ21の流量特性(最大循環量)と許容できる総配管長(水回路全体の圧力損失)によって決定する。
STEP11では、ポンプ21が最大運転台数で運転しているかそうでないか判断する。
ポンプ21が最大運転台数で運転している場合には何もせずにSTEP9へ移行する。
ポンプ21が最大運転台数で運転していない場合にはSTEP12へ移行する。
STEP12では、停止していたポンプ21を起動させる。ただし、水圧の急上昇を抑制するために、ポンプ21は最低入力(最低電圧)での起動とする。
その後はSTEP9へと移行する。
そして、圧縮機10の停止によって本制御は終了する。
