Abstract
An ejector-type refrigerant cycle device includes a compressor, a radiator, an ejector, a suction side evaporator disposed to evaporate refrigerant to be drawn into a refrigerant suction port of the ejector, and a discharge capacity control portion configured to control a refrigerant discharge capacity of the compressor. The discharge capacity control portion increases the refrigerant discharge capacity of the compressor in accordance with an increase of a requirement capacity required in a refrigerant cycle of a general operation, when the requirement capacity is larger than a standard value. In contrast, when the requirement capacity required in the refrigerant cycle is equal to or smaller than the standard value, the discharge capacity control portion controls the refrigerant discharge capacity of the compressor to be switched alternately between a high capacity operation and a low capacity operation. Thus, a refrigerant circulation amount in the refrigerant cycle can be suitably adjusted.
