<p>A multiple-type air conditioner in which air conditioning capacity required for it can be controlled according to a load on each indoor unit. The air conditioner performs air conditioning by changing the state of refrigerant and has a heat source unit (2), a first utilization unit, a second utilization unit, refrigerant communication piping (4), and a control section (5). The heat source unit has a heat source-side compressor (21), a heat source-side heat exchanger (23), and a heat source-side expansion mechanism (V2). The first utilization unit has a first utilization-side compressor, a first utilization-side heat exchanger, and a first utilization-side expansion mechanism. The second utilization unit has a second utilization-side compressor, a second utilization-side heat exchanger, and a second utilization-side expansion mechanism. The control section controls the first utilization-side compressor and the first utilization-side expansion mechanism according to a load on the first utilization unit and controls the second utilization-side compressor and the second utilization-side expansion mechanism according to a load on the second utilization unit.</p> |
