Abstract
A refrigerant leakage determination system capable of detecting leakage of refrigerant without requiring complicated processing is provided. A refrigerant leakage determination system is a refrigerant leakage determination system of a refrigeration cycle apparatus that includes a refrigerant circuit including a heat-source-side heat exchanger and has, as operating modes, a normal mode in which the heat-source-side heat exchanger is caused to function as an evaporator and a defrosting mode in which the heat-source-side heat exchanger frosted during a normal operation is defrosted. The refrigerant leakage determination system includes a processor configured to acquire defrosting information regarding a relationship between a normal operation period and the number of defrosting operations, and memory that stores the defrosting information. The processor is further configured to determine, based on the acquired defrosting information, leakage of refrigerant in the refrigerant circuit.
