Abstract
A refrigeration cycle apparatus includes; an air heat exchanger; a first expansion valve; a water heat exchanger; a flow passage switching device provided to a discharge part of a compressor; an injection pipe branched from a branch portion of a refrigerant pipe connecting the water heat exchanger with the first expansion valve, and is connected to an injection port of the compressor; a second expansion valve provided to the injection pipe; and an internal heat exchanger configured to exchange heat between refrigerant flowing between the water heat exchanger and the branch portion and refrigerant flowing from the second expansion valve and the injection pipe. The branch portion is provided downstream of the internal heat exchanger and upstream of the first expansion valve in a flow direction of the refrigerant when the flow passage switching device is operated in the first state.
