An air conditioning system in which a single heat source unit (A) comprising a compressor (1), a four-way valve (2), a heat source unit side heat exchanger (3) and an accumulator (4) is connected to a plurality of indoor units (B, C, D) through a first and a second connection pipes (6, 7). Each indoor unit (B, C, D) comprises a suction air temperature detecting device (50) for detecting a suction air temperature of the indoor unit, an opening degree setting device for setting a minimum valve opening degree of the first flow rate controller 9 in accordance with the difference between the target temperature and the suction air temperature and a first valve opening degree control device (52) for controlling the valve opening degree of the first flow rate controller 9 at a predetermined rate to the minimum valve opening degree.

Air-conditioning system

A multi-chamber heat-pump type air conditioner in which a plurality of room units (2, 3, 4) are connected to one heat source unit (1), cooling and heating can be effected selectively for each room unit (2, 3, 4), and cooling can be effected by one room unit and heating can be simultaneously effected by another, wherein the high-level pressure or low-level pressure is controlled from rising high as compared to the time of normal operation, and the reliability of the compressor (17) is improved. In which, a third pressure-detector (48) is provided for detecting a rise in pressure between a compressor (17) and a four-way changeover valve (18), and a control circuit (49) is provided for controlling such that, in the event that the pressure within the pipe is below a predetermined pressure, a sixth valve (45) and a seventh valve (46) are closed, while in the event that the pressure within the pipe exceeds the predetermined pressure, the sixth valve (45) and seventh valve (46) are opened.

A bypass system is further provided to enable an effective defrost operation.

An air conditioning apparatus which includes a single heat source device and plural indoor units including indoor heat exchangers. Some of the indoor units include a fan for introducing outdoor air, while others include a fan for circulating indoor air. In addition, a controller is provided for controlling operation of one or more of the indoor units to carry out heating, cooling or ventilation in response to a determination of the operation of one or more other indoor units.
