An air conditioning system capable of reducing noise incidental to gas-liquid two-phase transfer is provided. The air conditioning system (100) performs a refrigeration cycle in a refrigerant circuit (RC) including an outdoor unit (10), a plurality of indoor units (40), and a liquid-side connection pipe (LC) connecting the outdoor unit (10) and the indoor units (40). The air conditioning system (100) includes a second outdoor control valve (17, electric valve) decompressing the refrigerant flowing in the refrigerant circuit (RC) in accordance with an opening degree, an operating-capacity variation detection portion (74, detection portion) detecting change of the number of operating units in accordance with device information, and a device control portion (75, control portion) controlling a state of the second outdoor control valve (17). The device control portion (75) executes first control (feed-forward control) when the change of the number of operating units is detected by the operating-capacity variation detection portion (74), and adjusts the opening degree of the second outdoor control valve (17) to suppress a rise of pressure of the refrigerant flowing into the operating unit.

A fresh air plenum module (10) for attachment to a fan coil unit (12) for introducing air from an outdoor setting, wherein the fresh air plenum module includes: a first inlet (14) for connection to an outlet (24) of the fan coil unit; a second inlet (16) for connection to an air handling unit; an outlet (18) for discharge of the outdoor air and the conditioned air; and a merging volume (20) in communication with the first inlet, the second inlet and the outlet; in use, a flow of the outdoor air from the second inlet through the merging volume to the outlet generates a pressure gradient which induces a flow of air through the first inlet and into the fresh air plenum module from the fan coil unit.

A device comprising a fin structure, a vent disposed in the fin structure, a cooling coil disposed in the vent, a light disposed in the fin structure and wherein the fin structure is configured to create a Coanda effect for air exiting the vent.

An air conditioner of the disclosure includes a compressor; an indoor heat exchanger temperature sensor configured to sense an indoor heat exchanger temperature; an indoor humidity sensor configured to sense indoor humidity; and a controller configured to calculate a dew point temperature using the humidity value detected by the indoor humidity sensor and an indoor set temperature, and control a frequency of the compressor based on the calculated dew point temperature and the indoor heat exchanger temperature.

A tubular-shaped and modular air handling unit (AHU) for heating, ventilating, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems is disclosed. In some embodiments, a modular AHU is disclosed that may include a coil module, a fan module, and an electrical module; each of which may be tubular shaped for easily coupling one to another and easily coupling to tubular-shaped (or round or circular) ductwork. Further, in the tubular-shaped and modular AHU, each module may be independent and stand alone, thereby allowing for relatively easy upgrading, replacement, and/or servicing.

A device comprising a fin structure, a vent disposed in the fin structure, a cooling coil disposed in the vent, a light disposed in the fin structure and wherein the fin structure is configured to create a Coanda effect for air exiting the vent.

A common vent application and an independent fan coil are disclosed for improved heating, cooling and water making in a building. The independent fan coil obviates the common boilers and chillers in addition to all the common heating and cooling distribution piping used in known systems. Instead, the fan coils contain all the hydronic heating components and all the components needed to provide AC without the use of common boilers and chilled water systems. The fan coils utilize common vent shaft ducting to exhaust the products of combustion generated for the independent tankless water heater. In addition, the common vent shaft may utilize a negative static pressure environment to exhaust the heat of rejection from the AC portion of the fan coil unit.

The amount of refrigerant to be charged in a refrigerant circuit of an air conditioner is set to a range defined by a lower-limit charge amount and an upper-limit charge amount. The lower-limit charge amount is a charge amount with which a refrigerant supercooling degree is 0 deg and a refrigerant quality is 0 at a refrigerant outlet side of a supercooling heat exchanger when a cooling operation is performed under an overload condition in which the refrigerant is hardly condensed in an outdoor heat exchanger that functions as a condenser. On the other hand, the upper-limit charge amount is a charge amount with which a refrigerant supercooling degree is 0 deg and a refrigerant quality is 0 at a refrigerant outlet side of the outdoor heat exchanger when the cooling operation is performed under a rated condition.

A pneumatic radiation unit according to the present invention includes: a first chamber including a first air discharger configured to discharge air-conditioning air to a second chamber; and the second chamber including a second air discharger configured to discharge the air-conditioning air to a space to be air conditioned, the second chamber being configured to take in the air-conditioning air from the first chamber and discharge the air-conditioning air and radiate heat to the space to be air conditioned. A second aperture ratio of the second air discharger is set to be greater than a first aperture ratio of the first air discharger, or a cross-sectional area of a flow passage of the air-conditioning air in the first chamber is gradually reduced from an upwind side to a downwind side of the flow passage of the air-conditioning air.
