The present disclosure provides a control method of a compressor and a refrigerant circulation system. The control method includes deciding whether a current working volume state of the compressor is matched with a control instruction after the compressor completes a change to a working volume according to the control instruction; determining that the compressor operates normally in a case where the current working volume state of the compressor is matched with the control instruction; and determining that the compressor operates in fault in a case where the current working volume state of the compressor is not matched with the control instruction.

The present disclosure relates to a two-stage rotary compressor in which refrigerant inhaled into a compression space of a cylinder is compressed sequentially in two axially connected compression chambers and then is discharged. A rotary compressor according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a first compression unit and a second compression unit arranged on and along a single rotation shaft. Middle-pressure refrigerant discharged from the first compression unit flows into the second compression unit. A maximum gas force of the first compression unit and a maximum gas force of the second compression unit counteract with each other, thereby reducing a reaction force acting on a rotation shaft. According to the present disclosure, a single rotary compressor is configured to separately achieve the stroke volume increase and the compression period increase.

In embodiments, a compressor includes three suction pipes. A first center of a first suction pipe, a second center of a second suction pipe, and a third center of a third suction pipe are positioned at vertices of a triangle. A first distance between the first center and a center of a compressor main body is smaller than a second distance between the second center and the center of the compressor main body and a third distance between the third center and the center of the compressor main body. A first flow path cross section of the first suction pipe overlaps a center connection line passing through the center of the compressor main body and a center of an accumulator. A second flow path cross section and a third flow path cross section are positioned on opposite sides of the center connection line sandwiched therebetween. The first suction pipe is connected to a suction port which is at an uppermost position among three suction ports provided in a case.
