More Information
Summary:A capacity-variable air conditioner capable of controlling capacity and consumed electricity in response to operation mode is disclosed wherein the refrigerant compression quantity of a compressor (120) is variably adjusted by control of open/close operation modes via selective combination of open/close valves (171.172) of bypass pipes (161.162) and bypass valve (173) of the compressor (120) in response to the operation mode. The disclosed capacity-variable air conditioner discharges some of the refrigerant infused into the compressor (120) while the bypass valve (173) of the compressor (120) is opened under energy saving operation mode, such that refrigerant circulation quantity can be adjustably reduced under the energy saving operation mode where load of the compressor is less than that of a normal operation mode, thereby enabling to reduce the capacity and consumed electricity.
