- the pipe diameter of the secondary-side gas connection pipe 42 is 15.9 mm. This pipe diameter is smaller than the pipe diameter 19.1 mm of a gas connection pipe in a single cycle having the same capacity.
- the pipe diameter of the secondary-side liquid connection pipe 41 is 4.8 mm. This pipe diameter is smaller than the pipe diameter 6.4 mm of a liquid connection pipe in a single cycle having the same capacity.
- the pipe diameter of the secondary-side liquid connection pipe is 7.9 mm. This pipe diameter is smaller than the pipe diameter 9.5 mm of a liquid connection pipe in a single cycle having the same capacity.
- the pipe diameter of the secondary-side liquid connection pipe is 9.5 mm. This pipe diameter is smaller than the pipe diameter 12.7 mm of a liquid connection pipe in a single cycle having the same capacity.
- the pipe diameter of the secondary-side gas connection pipe 42 is 15.9 mm. This pipe diameter is smaller than the pipe diameter 19.1 mm of a gas connection pipe in a single cycle having the same capacity.
- the pipe diameter of the secondary-side gas connection pipe 42 is 19.1 mm. This pipe diameter is smaller than the pipe diameter 22.2 mm of a gas connection pipe in a single cycle having the same capacity.
- the pipe diameter of the secondary-side liquid connection pipe 41 is 9.5 mm. This pipe diameter is smaller than the pipe diameter 12.7 mm of a liquid connection pipe in a single cycle having the same capacity.
- the pipe diameter of the secondary-side liquid connection pipe 41 is 12.7 mm. This pipe diameter is smaller than the pipe diameter 15.9 mm of a liquid connection pipe in a single cycle having the same capacity.
- the pipe diameter of the secondary-side liquid connection pipe 41 is 15.9 mm. This pipe diameter is smaller than the pipe diameter 19.1 mm of a liquid connection pipe in a single cycle having the same capacity.
- the pipe diameter of the connection pipe in the secondary-side cycle 40 is smaller than the pipe diameter of the connection pipe in the primary-side cycle 20. Consequently, it is possible to increase the flow speed of refrigerant in the secondary-side cycle. Therefore, a refrigerating-machine oil that has flowed out from the compressor easily returns to the compressor.
- the pipe diameter of the secondary-side gas connection pipe 42 may be less than or equal to 90% of the pipe diameter of the primary-side gas connection pipe 22, or the pipe diameter of the secondary-side liquid connection pipe 41 may be less than or equal to 90% of the pipe diameter of the primary-side liquid connection pipe 21.
- the compression ratio of the secondary-side cycle 40 may be smaller than the compression ratio of the primary-side cycle 20.
- the refrigerant cycle system 100 includes the one heat source unit 10, the one cascade unit 30, and the one usage unit 50.
- the refrigerant cycle system 100 may include the one heat source unit 10, a plurality of the cascade units 30, and a plurality of the usage units 50.
