PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable switching a cooling operation over between a vapor compression cooling operation and a natural circulation cooling operation so that an air conditioning system can efficiently operate as a whole in the air conditioning system capable of cooling a room by switching the cooling operation over between the vapor compression cooling operation and the natural circulation cooling operation.SOLUTION: If operating conditions are that a vapor compression cooling operation and a natural circulation cooling operation are both operable at a time of the vapor compression cooling operation, an air conditioning system (1) compares current power consumption of the vapor compression cooling operation with predicted power consumption if a cooling operation is switched to the natural circulation cooling operation, and performs either the vapor compression cooling operation or the natural circulation cooling operation lower in power consumption. |
