Abstract: An air-conditioning apparatus includes a main circuit in which a compressor, a flow switching device, an indoor heat exchanger, a pressure reducing device, and a plurality of parallel heat exchangers connected in parallel with each other are connected by pipes, a bypass pipe, a flow control device provided to the bypass pipe and configured to adjust a flow rate of refrigerant flowing through the bypass pipe, an evaporating pressure sensor configured to measure an evaporating pressure of the refrigerant, and a controller. The air-conditioning apparatus is configured to operate in a normal heating operation mode and a heating-defrosting operation mode. When an operation associated with the normal heating operation mode is switched to an operation associated with the heating-defrosting operation mode, the controller adjusts an opening degree of the flow control device using the evaporating pressure in the parallel heat exchanger and a driving frequency of the compressor.

Abstract: A cooling mechanism includes a bottom wall (22) in contact with a combustion chamber, an upper wall (30), and a cooling passage (40) arranged between the bottom wall (22) and the upper wall (30). The cooling passage (40) includes a first passage (50) extending to a first direction, a second passage (60) extending to the first direction, and a connection section (70) connected with the first passage (50) and the second passage (60). The second passage (60) is arranged to have an offset to the first passage (50) in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction and along the bottom wall (22).

Abstract: An injection device, a combustor, and a rocket engine include a device main body partitioned into a fuel manifold and an oxidant manifold, and a plurality of injectors arranged at predetermined intervals in the device main body to inject fuel and oxidant into a combustion chamber, each of the injectors includes a LOx channel including a proximal end portion communicating with the oxidant manifold and a distal end portion communicating with the combustion chamber, a restrictor provided on the proximal end portion of the LOx channel and a GH2 channel including a proximal end portion communicating with the fuel manifold and a distal end portion communicating with the combustion chamber, and the restrictors have different shapes.

Abstract: A combustor and a rocket engine include an injection device that injects an oxidizing agent and fuel from an injecting surface, a combustion chamber that generates combustion gas by burning the oxidizing agent and the fuel injected from the injection device, a resonator communicatively connected with the combustion chamber via a communication passage, and a perforated plate provided in the communication passage.
