<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To humidify the interior of a room without any increase in cooling load of an air conditioner during the humidifying operation. <P>SOLUTION: This humidity control device includes a compressor 21, a first adsorption heat exchanger 23 and a second adsorption heat exchanger 25 that carry an adsorption agent for adsorbing moisture in air, and a refrigerant circuit 20 in which a refrigerant is reversibly circulated to perform a vapor compression type refrigeration cycle. The refrigerant circuit 20 has a sensible heat exchanger 26 which causes the refrigerant having passed through the adsorption heat exchanger 23, 25 functioning as an evaporator to exchange heat with air having passed through the adsorption heat exchanger 23, 25 functioning as a condenser and cools the air. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT |
