Abstract: After a chiller unit is started, an opening command of 10 pulses is output to an electronic expansion valve, and after a predetermined period of time (at the time of starting with unload) elapses, an opening command of 100 to 150 pulses is output to open the electronic expansion valve up to a predetermined opening degree. Thereafter, a discharge side refrigerant super-heat TdSH is monitored and a closing command of 1 pulse/sec is output to the electronic expansion valve to drive the same in a closing direction in a short time until TdSH becomes 20 K. After TdSH has reached 20 K, a closing command of 1 pulse/3 sec is output to the electronic expansion valve, until TdSH becomes 25 K, to drive the electronic expansion valve 3 at a smaller speed in the closing direction than that speed in the closing direction until TdSH becomes 20 K.

Abstract: A polyester resin comprising a polyester resin chip (A) and a polyester resin fine particle (B) which has the same composition as the (A) and which passes through a 10.5 mesh screen in a proportion of 0.1-300 ppm, wherein a cyclic trimer increases in a proportion of not more than 0.30 wt % upon melting at a temperature of 290.degree. C. for 60 minutes; a polyester resin characterized in that a cyclic trimer increases in a proportion of not more than 0.30 wt % upon melting at a temperature of 290.degree. C. for 60 minutes, and the contents of Na, Ca, Mg and/or Si in the polyeser resin is 0.001-5 ppm and the total of these contents is not more than 10 ppm; and production methods thereof.

Abstract: A scroll type compressor having a pair of scroll type compression units which are encased in the same casing so as to make a common use of a lubricating oil reservoir provided in the casing, wherein the compression units have compression elements, drive shafts, driving motors and other components which are of the same constructions and specifications, and wherein each of the compression units are adapted to be driven selectively by commercial electrical power or through a frequency-variable inverter so as to operate at different speeds. Since both compression units can be made up from the same components such as the compression elements, loads in the production, service and administration, are greatly reduced contributing to a reduction in the labor and cost, while eliminating any mounting error.

Abstract: This invention relates to a method for developing an exposed silver halide color photosensitive material which comprises conducting the development in the presence of the following compound: ##STR1## wherein Cp is a cyan coupler residue having been removed one hydrogen atom from active methylene of the coupler; R.sub.1 and R2 are individually hydrogen, helogen, a substituted or unsubstituted group selected from an aliphatic hydrocarbon residue, an aromatic hydrocarbon residue, acyl, carbamoyl, cyans and formyl; X is a substituted or unsubstituted group selected from an aliphatic hydrocarbon residue, an aromatic hydrocarbon residue, a heterocyclic ring residue, and a carbonyl group; and n is 0 or 1 provided that, when n is 1, X is the carbonyl group.
