<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve the separation efficiency of a gas-liquid separator in the gas-liquid separator and an air conditioner with the same. <P>SOLUTION: In the gas-liquid separator having an inlet pipe and an outlet pipe, an exit end section of the inlet pipe is formed to be closed or to have a gap, an expanded end section having a width greater than the diameter of that portion of the inlet pipe which crosses a container of the gas-liquid separator is provided, and a lateral hole is formed in a side face of the expanded end section. Refrigerant vapor and refrigerant liquid are efficiently separated from each other at the expanded end section, and this improves separation efficiency of the gas-liquid separator. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT |
