Abstract (en)

A refrigeration cycle apparatus according to the invention can continue the operation regardless of failure of any of multiple refrigerant circuits. The refrigeration cycle apparatus can also stabilize the temperature of the refrigerant to be cooled regardless of a defrosting operation of any of the refrigerant circuits during heating operations of the other refrigerant circuits. A water-side heat exchanger (8a) and a water-side heat exchanger (8c) are connected in series with a water pipe. A water-side heat exchanger (8b) and a water-side heat exchanger (8d) are connected in series with another water pipe. The water-side heat exchanger (8a) and the water-side heat exchanger (8c), which are connected in series, are connected in parallel to the water-side heat exchanger (8b) and the water-side heat exchanger (8d), which are connected in series, with other water pipes.
