Abstract

See full text

The objective of the present invention is to provide a refrigerant circulation device and a refrigerant circulation method with which a change in pressure inside the device can be avoided and performance stability and stable operation are achieved even when a HFO or a HCFO refrigerant is used. In the refrigerant circulation device (1), a refrigerant circulation circuit for circulating a refrigerant is formed by connecting a compressor (3), a condenser (5), an expansion valve (7), and an evaporator (9) through primary pipes (11a, 11b, 11c, 11d), and the refrigerant circulation circuit is charged with a refrigerant containing hydrofluoroolefin or hydrochlorofluoroolefin having a carbon-carbon double bond in the molecular structure. The refrigerant circulation device (1) is provided with a recovery catalyst that is arranged so as to be capable of contacting the refrigerant in the refrigerant circulation circuit, and is for returning, to the pre-isomerization state, an isomer formed by isomerization of the hydrofluoroolefin or hydrochlorofluoroolefin contained in the initial refrigerant with which the refrigerant circulation circuit is initially charged.
