Abstract (en)
[origin: EP3225938A1] Disclosed is an air conditioner (10) including a compressor (210), which compresses and discharges a refrigerant, a condenser (240), which condenses the refrigerant compressed in the compressor, an expansion device (22), which expands the refrigerant condensed in the condenser, an evaporator (160), which evaporates the refrigerant expanded in the expansion device, performs heat exchange between the refrigerant and indoor air, and discharges the evaporated refrigerant to the compressor, a bypass unit (31,32), which guides some of the refrigerant discharged from the condenser to an outlet end of the evaporator, a heat exchange unit (253,260), which performs heat exchange between some of the refrigerant discharged from the compressor and the refrigerant to be suctioned into the compressor, and a control unit (300), which controls overall operation of the air conditioner. The control unit controls the bypass unit so as to bypass the refrigerant, discharged from the condenser, to the outlet end of the evaporator upon an oil collection operation.
