At the time of heating operation of this air conditioner, low outside air temperature,
In the case of high humidity, the moisture in the outside air freezes on the surface of the outdoor heat exchanger 5 to form frost. Then, the flow resistance of the outside air flowing through the outdoor heat exchanger 5 increases, and the airflow of the outside air flowing through the outdoor heat exchanger 5 decreases accordingly. Since the surface temperature is reduced, frost formation is further promoted. Then, when frost formation on the outdoor heat exchanger 5 progresses,
Since the evaporation temperature of the refrigerant decreases, the amount of heat absorbed by the outdoor heat exchanger 5 decreases as shown in FIG. 5 to decrease the heating capacity and the temperature of the refrigerant sucked into the compressor 1 decreases. The discharge pipe temperature Td also decreases.
