Defrosting Operation

To defrost the outdoor unit heat exchanger while in heating operation, the defrost operation is conducted to recover the
heating capacity.
[Start conditions]
Referring to the set conditions for the following items, start the defrosting operation.
• Heat transfer coefficient of the outdoor unit heat exchanger
• Heat exchange temperature (Tb)
• Timer (Set to two hours at minimum.)
Furthermore, the heat transfer coefficient of the outdoor unit heat exchanger is computed from Tc, Te, and compressor
loads.
