Abstract: An outside-air processing device includes a main body having a return-air introducing port for introducing return air from a room and a supply-air outlet port for blowing out supply air into the room, a total heat exchanger arranged in the main body and configured to exchange heat between outdoor air and the return air, and to blow out the heat-exchanged outdoor air from the supply-air outlet port as the supply air, and an opening-closing unit configured to open and close a bypass path formed in the main body to bypass between the return-air introducing port and the supply-air outlet port.

Abstract: An air-conditioning apparatus includes a refrigerant circuit and a fluid circuit. The fluid circuit includes a first branch circuit that connects a branching portion at which a downstream portion of a second heat exchanger branches and a connecting portion farther downstream in a direction of fluid flow than the branching portion, and a second branch circuit that connects a branching portion at which a portion farther downstream than the connecting portion of the first branch circuit branches and a connecting portion farther downstream in the direction of fluid flow than the branching portion of the second branch circuit. The first branch circuit is provided with a third heat exchanger that exchanges heat between fluid flowing through the fluid circuit and outdoor air, and the second branch circuit is provided with a heat storage tank that stores fluid having exchanged heat with outdoor air in the third heat exchanger.

Abstract: An air conditioning system according to the present invention changes a target supply temperature based on a magnitude relationship between an operating frequency of a first compressor and a first frequency at which an operating efficiency of the first compressor reaches a maximum, and a magnitude relationship between an operating frequency of a second compressor and a second frequency at which an operating efficiency of the second compressor reaches a maximum.

Abstract: When a humidity condition, including a humidity detected by a temperature and humidity sensor and a humidification load sensing unit falling below a threshold value, is met, an outside air conditioner supplies the heated and humidified air into the room. When the humidity condition is met during the indoor heating operation, the indoor heating operation is stopped or weakened. When the humidity condition is met, only the outside air conditioner is subjected to a heating and humidifying operation. Since the indoor air is not heated by the inside air conditioner more than necessary, when a heating load is low and a humidification load is present, a “conflicting state” can be prevented in which the inside air conditioner is subjected to a cooling and dehumidifying operation and the outside air conditioner is subjected to the heating and humidifying operation.

Abstract: A ventilator includes an exhaust air duct for exhausting air from an interior space to an outside and a supply air duct for supplying air from the outside to the interior space, and is equipped with a heat exchanger and a defroster. The heat exchanger performs heat exchange between air passing through the exhaust air duct and air passing through the supply air duct. The defroster defrosts, when frost attaches to the heat exchanger, the heat exchanger by, after air flows into the exhaust air duct or the supply air duct, changing a state of the air.

Abstract: An air conditioning system includes a compressor to compress refrigerant; a first heat exchanger to condense the compressed refrigerant into a supercooled liquid state; a first decompressor to decompress the condensed refrigerant; a second heat exchanger to cause the decompressed refrigerant to absorb heat; a second decompressor to decompress the heated refrigerant; a third heat exchanger to evaporate the decompressed refrigerant; and a blower fan to take in air from outside a room and blow the air to the first heat exchanger. The second heat exchanger is disposed downstream of the first heat exchanger in a blowing direction of the blower fan. A humidifier is disposed between the first heat exchanger and the second heat exchanger in the blowing direction. The air blown from the blower fan is heated by the first heat exchanger, humidified by the humidifier, cooled by the second heat exchanger, and supplied into the room.
