Abstract

See full text

A flow rate of a heat transfer medium is computed without a flow meter. In a control apparatus (30), a storing portion (36) stores an aerodynamic characteristic map indicating a line causing a rotating stall and lines showing a sonic velocity in a refrigerant sucked in by a compressor (12) on a map displaying a variable θ reflecting a suction volume of the compressor (12) and a variable Ω reflecting a head of the compressor (12); a estimation portion of chilled water flow rate (30b) computes the variable Ω, derives the variable θ according to the variable Ω from the map, computes a heat amount exchanged between the refrigerant and the chilled water in an evaporator (24) based on the suction volume of the compressor (12) according to the computed variable θ, and computes the flow rate of the chilled water based on the heat amount.
