REFRIGERATION APPARATUS

摘要

A refrigerant circuit (20) includes a low stage compressor (101, 102, 121, 122), a high stage compressor (41, 42, 43), an outdoor heat exchanger (44) and a utilization side heat exchanger (83, 93). During a defrosting operation of the refrigeration system (10), the high stage compressor (41, 42, 43) is driven. Refrigerant discharged from the high stage compressor (41, 42, 43) is pumped into the utilization side heat exchanger (83, 93) to heat frost on it from its inside. Thereafter, the refrigerant evaporates in the outdoor heat exchanger (44), is then compressed by the high stage compressor (41, 42, 43) and is sent again to the utilization side heat exchanger (83, 93).
