Abstract
The present disclosure provides a refrigeration cycle apparatus, including a compressor to compress a sucked refrigerant, a condenser to condense the refrigerant discharged from the compressor to exchange heat, a receiver to store the refrigerant discharged from the condenser, an evaporator to evaporate the refrigerant discharged from the receiver to exchange heat, an upstream expansion valve provided at a pipe between the condenser and the receiver, a downstream expansion valve provided at a pipe between the receiver and the evaporator, and a controller to control an opening degree of the upstream expansion valve and an opening degree of the downstream expansion valve in conjunction with each other so as to keep an opening degree ratio between the opening ratio of the upstream expansion valve and the opening ratio of the downstream expansion valve constant.
