<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a refrigeration cycle apparatus having high energy consumption efficiency in operation, by sufficiently increasing a degree of superheat of suction, even when the apparatus is provided with a low-pressure liquid receiver for adjusting a refrigerant amount in accordance with changes of an outside air temperature and an inflow water temperature. <P>SOLUTION: By arranging a superheater 11 between a low-pressure liquid receiver 6 and a compressor 1 to superheat a refrigerant outputted from the low-pressure liquid receiver 6, a degree of superheat of suction, which cannot be achieved only by a heat exchange amount in an inner heat exchanger 5, can be achieved, the degree of superheat of suction can be set to an optimum degree. Consequently, even when the refrigeration cycle apparatus is provided with the low-pressure liquid receiver 6 for optimizing a refrigerant amount in accordance with changes of an outside air temperature and an inflow water temperature, the energy consumption efficiency of the refrigeration cycle apparatus can be enhanced. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
