Abstract

An air conditioning system and a method for controlling the same are provided. The air conditioning system includes an enhanced vapor injection compressor, first and second direction switching assemblies, first and second heat exchangers and a flash evaporator. The enhanced vapor injection compressor has an air discharge port, an air supplement port, first and second air suction ports, and an air return port. Pressure in a sliding vane chamber of an air cylinder corresponding to the second air suction port is equal to a discharge pressure at the air discharge port. A first pipe port of the first direction switching assembly is connected with the second air suction port, a second pipe port thereof is connected with the air discharge port and a third pipe port thereof is connected with the liquid accumulator, and the first pipe port is communicated with one of the second and third pipe ports.
