Disclosed herein is an air conditioner. The air conditioner includes a housing having an inlet and an outlet, and having a first guide surface forming the outlet and a second guide surface facing the first guide surface provided therein, a heat exchanger configured to heat-exchange air suctioned through the inlet, a blower fan configured to suction air from the inlet, heat-exchange the air by passing air through the heat exchanger, and discharge air toward the outlet, and an airflow control unit provided to be movable between a first position adjacent to one end portion of the outlet from which air is discharged and a second position spaced apart from the end portion of the outlet from which air is discharged, and protruding from the first guide surface or the second guide surface when the airflow control unit placed at the first

Air conditioner

Disclosed herein is an air conditioner. The air conditioner includes a housing having an inlet and an outlet, and having a first guide surface forming the outlet and a second guide surface facing the first guide surface provided therein, a heat exchanger configured to heat-exchange air suctioned through the inlet, a blower fan configured to suction air from the inlet, heat-exchange the air by passing air through the heat exchanger, and discharge air toward the outlet, and an airflow control unit provided to be movable between a first position adjacent to one end portion of the outlet from which air is discharged and a second position spaced apart from the end portion of the outlet from which air is discharged, and protruding from the first guide surface or the second guide surface when the airflow control unit placed at the first position.

A cooling and heating control method of a multi type air conditioner in which a target pressure of a compressor is adjusted based on conditions of respective indoor units so as to reduce power consumption is provided. The cooling control method includes determining the indoor unit desired to execute power saving control, judging whether or not a difference between a temperature of a space in which the indoor unit desired to execute power saving control is located and a set temperature of the indoor unit is less than a reference value, raising a target evaporation temperature of the indoor unit upon judging that the difference is less than the reference value, comparing an evaporation temperature of the indoor unit with the raised target evaporation temperature, and raising an evaporation pressure of a compressor, when the evaporation temperature of the indoor unit is lower than the raised target evaporation temperature.

Multi type air conditioner and cooling and heating control method thereof

A compressor capable of reducing oil foaming and reducing the waiting time taken until the heating of the compressor is completed, and a method of controlling the same, the method of controlling a compressor including sensing temperature of the oil in the compressor, if the temperature of the oil is below a reference temperature, performing a loss operation, in which an amount of heat radiation of the motor part is increased, while operating the motor part at a low speed, and if the temperature of the oil increases to be equal to or higher then reference temperature, performing an efficiency operation by converting an operation of the motor to a normal operation.

Compressor and control method thereof

A heat exchanger that effectively distributes a refrigerant by varying the cross-sectional area of a header and an air conditioner having the same. The heat exchanger includes a plurality of refrigerant tubes disposed spaced apart from each other, a header joined to both ends of each of the refrigerant tubes, at least one baffle to divide the refrigerant tubes into a plurality of mutually adjacent groups and block a longitudinal flow of a refrigerant flowing in the header, each of the groups causing the refrigerant to flow in one direction, and a booster installed to vary a cross-sectional area of the header to uniformly distribute the refrigerant to refrigerant tubes in the same group among the refrigerant tubes. The booster to vary the cross-sectional area of the header may allow a refrigerant flowing through a header to be effectively distributed to the refrigerant tubes.

Heat exchanger utilizing device to vary cross section of header

A planar motor includes a base provided with at least one stator, a mover provided on a top portion of a planar object to be placed on a top portion of the base, and moving according to a magnetic field generated by the stator, a mover support connected to the mover, supporting the mover from the planar object, and moving the mover according to a force of the magnetic field, and a controller supplying a control current to the stator to control location of the mover.

Planar motor and processing apparatus and using the same

An air conditioner having a plurality of compressors and a starting control method thereof, where the plurality of compressors is simultaneously started if a starting load of the air conditioner is smaller than a reference load, and the plurality of compressors is sequentially started if the starting load of the air conditioner is larger than the reference load, thereby simultaneously starting the plurality of compressors at a starting load section in which a starting stability of the compressors is secured, and thus capable of enhancing the cooling and heating performance.

Air conditioner and starting control method thereof
