Abstract
A vehicle air conditioner includes: a refrigerant circuit which includes a compressor, an external heat exchanger, an expansion valve, and an evaporator; and a cooling fan. The vehicle air conditioner further includes: a refrigerant temperature detection part; a vehicle environment temperature detection part; and a controller. The refrigerant temperature detection part is configured to determine the temperature of a refrigerant which flows into the expansion valve. The vehicle environment temperature detection part is configured to determine a temperature outside the refrigerant circuit under an installation environment. The controller is configured to control a speed of the cooling fan in a cooling operation time such that a cooling performance with respect to the external heat exchanger is decreased when the temperature difference between a determined refrigerant temperature by the refrigerant temperature detection part and a determined external temperature by the vehicle environment temperature detection part is equal to or less than a first set temperature difference.
