Abstract: In an air conditioner that uses a refrigerant mixture containing at least 1,2-difluoroethylene, high efficiency is achieved. The motor rotation rate of a compressor (100) can be changed in accordance with an air conditioning load, and thus a high annual performance factor (APF) can be achieved. In addition, an electrolytic capacitor is not required on an output side of a rectifier circuit (21), and thus an increase in the size and cost of the circuit is suppressed.

Abstract: A controller for an engine estimates a temperature of the exhaust gas and controls the engine according to the estimated exhaust temperature. The controller changes the air-fuel ratio to a stoichiometric air-fuel ratio or leaner. The controller calculates the progress of combustion on the basis of signals of sensors, and estimates an exhaust temperature. In the case where the air-fuel ratio is the stoichiometric air-fuel ratio, the controller estimates the exhaust temperature on the basis of the progress of the combustion, the engine temperature, and a first relationship that is at least defined between the progress of the combustion and the exhaust temperature, . In the case where the air-fuel ratio is lean, the controller estimates the exhaust temperature on the basis of the progress of the combustion, the engine temperature, and a second relationship that differs from the first relationship.

Abstract: A conductive film is formed to extend from a bottom and a sidewall of a recess formed in an interlayer insulating film onto a top surface of the interlayer insulating film. Dry etching of the conductive film is performed such that a portion of the conductive film remains on the bottom and sidewall of the recess. The dry etching is also performed such that a deposition film is formed on a top portion of the recess.
