Abstract
A refrigerant charging method for an air conditioning device in which carbon dioxide is used as a refrigerant includes a connecting step and a refrigerant charging step. In the connecting step, a cylinder containing the refrigerant is connected to a space in the air conditioning device intended to be charged by the refrigerant. A heater is interposed between the cylinder and the air conditioning device. In the refrigerant charging step, the refrigerant is moved to the intended charging space from the cylinder, via the heater. In the refrigerant charging step, further, the refrigerant that has exited the cylinder is heated by the heater so that a specific enthalpy of the refrigerant when it enters the intended charging space will be 430 kJ/kg or higher.
