  • Publication number: 20220268280
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a dual-stage compressor, a control method thereof, and an air conditioning unit. The dual-stage compressor includes a low-pressure stage; a high-pressure stage connected in series with the low-pressure stage; and a volume ratio adjustment mechanism arranged at the high-pressure stage and configured to adjust the volume ratio of refrigerant compression at the high-pressure stage. When the final compression pressure of the compressor is lower or greater than the exhaust pressure, the volume ratio adjustment mechanism is operated to increase or reduce the volume ratio of refrigerant compression at the high-pressure stage so that the final compression pressure of the compressor is equal to the exhaust pressure, and overcompression and undercompression are improved to adapt to changes in external conditions, increase the energy efficiency of the compressor, and reduce the noise of the compressor.
