Abstract
Provided are an evaporator unit for vehicle-interior air conditioning 2 for cooling an interior of a vehicle, an evaporator unit for on-vehicle battery cooling 3 including an evaporator for on-vehicle battery cooling 32 for cooling an on-vehicle battery mounted on the vehicle; an electric compressor 5 for compressing and supplying a refrigerant to the evaporator unit for vehicle-interior air conditioning 2 and the evaporator unit for on-vehicle battery cooling 3; a temperature sensor 41 for detecting an inner temperature of the electric compressor 5; a pressure sensor 42 for detecting a pressure of the refrigerant compressed by the electric compressor 5; and an air-conditioning control unit 40 for restricting operation of the evaporator for on-vehicle battery cooling 32 so as to reduce load on the electric compressor 5 based on the inner temperature of the electric compressor 5 and the pressure of the refrigerant.

6. A refrigerant circulation apparatus comprising:
-
a vehicle-interior air conditioner configured to cool an interior of a vehicle; an on-vehicle battery cooler including an evaporator for on-vehicle battery cooling configured to cool an on-vehicle battery mounted on the vehicle; an electric compressor configured to compress and supply a refrigerant to one or both of the vehicle-interior air conditioner and the on-vehicle battery cooler; temperature detection unit configured to detect a temperature of the electric compressor; pressure detection unit configured to detect a pressure of the refrigerant compressed by the electric compressor; and control unit configured to restrict operation of the evaporator for on-vehicle battery cooling so as to reduce load on the electric compressor based on the temperature of the electric compressor and the pressure of the refrigerant. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21)
