Abstract
An air conditioning apparatus includes a refrigerant circuit, a suction temperature sensor, and a controller. In the refrigerant circuit, a compressor, a radiator, an expansion valve, an evaporator, and an accumulator are connected in order. The controller controls the number of revolutions of the compressor and the opening degree of the expansion valve. On determination that a refrigerant and a lubricating oil are separated inside the accumulator based on a detection result of the suction temperature sensor, the controller executes control of step to decrease the number of revolutions of the compressor, and executes control of step to set the opening degree of the expansion valve to a predetermined opening degree.
