Abstract (en)

Disclosed is an inner grooved heat transfer tube (10) having a line groove (11) in which is formed a deformed portion (13). In order to upgrade the performance of heat transmission by securing an action of scattering liquid refrigerant by the deformed portion (13) when used in a condenser, and in order to reduce the loss of pressure when used in an evaporator, conditions (e.g., the ratio of a main groove (12) to the deformed portion (13) of the line groove (11) and the angle and length of the main groove (12) and the deformed portion (13)) are specified so as to fall within predetermined ranges. <IMAGE>
