次に、本実施形態に係る空気調和装置(1)の運転動作について説明する。この空気調和装置(1)では、各室内ユニット(30a,30b)で暖房を行う運転と、各室内ユニット(30a,30b)で冷房を行う運転とが可能となっている。
上記実施形態は、全ての室内熱交換器(33a,33b)の出口冷媒温度Tgc(1)及びTgc(2)の平均値Tgc(a)と、制御対象の室内熱交換器(33a,33b)の出口冷媒温度Tgc(1)及びTgc(2)との偏差ΔTgc(1)及びΔTgc(2)を算出し、この偏差ΔTgc(1)及びΔTgc(2)が、出口冷媒温度Tgc(1)及びTgc(2)の目標冷媒温度Tgc(S1)及びTgc(S2)と上記平均値Tgc(a)との偏差である目標値ΔTgc(S1)及びΔTgc(S2)に近づくようにした。したがって、上記実施形態によれば、高圧冷媒の圧力変動に伴って各室内熱交換器(33a,33b)の出口冷媒温度が変動Tgc(1)及びTgc(2)しても、上記偏差ΔTgc(1)及びΔTgc(2)の変動を抑制することができる。この結果、高圧冷媒の圧力変動が生じても、各室内膨張弁(34a,34b)の開度を調節する必要がなく、各室内熱交換器(33a,33b)の出口冷媒温度Tgc(1)及びTgc(2)を安定して制御することができる。よって、上記各室内熱交換器(33a,33b)の暖房能力を安定させることができる。
本発明は、上記実施形態について、以下のような構成としてもよい。
