English to French translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering - Engineering (general) / (in a patent) air-conditioner
English term or phrase: the closer...reaches to
wherein the change (B1, B2 and B3; or C1, C2 and C3) in opening degree is determined in consideration of the current opening degree of the first expansion device such that the closer the opening degree reaches to the target opening degree, the smaller
change (B1, B2 and B3; or C1, C2 and C3) in opening degree becomes.


as the opening time increases and the opening degree of the first expansion valve reaches closer to the target opening degree, the smaller the change in opening degree becomes smaller, thereby achieving more precise control.

Explanation:
'reaches' is arguably incorrect, but seems consistent with the non-native-speaker quality of the EN as a whole. In any event, the intended meaning is clear.
