Abstract
An air-conditioning apparatus includes: a centrifugal air-sending device including a fan and a scroll casing having a tongue portion and a discharge portion, and a housing having a housing suction port and a discharge portion. A trailing edge of a blade located closest to a wall portion of the housing is a first trailing edge portion, and a leading edge of a blade located closest to the tongue portion is a first leading edge portion. In a first region, a boundary portion located closest to the tongue portion is located between first and second straight lines. The first straight line passes through a rotation axis of the fan and the first trailing edge portion, the second straight line is parallel to the first straight line and passes through the first leading edge portion, and the first region forms part of the housing suction port close to the tongue portion.
