<p>In the cooling operation, it is determined whether supplied electric current (IDC) supplied to an electric motor (30) for driving a compressor (21) is less than a predetermined value or not, that is, whether consumed electric power of the electric motor (30) is less than a predetermined value or not. In the cool-down control, the determination may be NO, however, in this case an inverter (31) is controlled so that the IDC is set to the predetermined value. Thus, in the present invention, since IDC is always the predetermined value or less and the consumed electric power of the electric motor is always the predetermined value or less, coefficiency of performance (COP) of the refrigerating cycle (20) can be maintained to a predetermined magnitude. <IMAGE></p> |
