Abstract (en)

A heat exchanger which is favorably used as a condenser includes a pair of headers (2, 3) arranged apart from each other, and a plurality of heat exchange tubes (4) arranged between the headers (2, 3) and having opposite end portions connected to the corresponding headers (2, 3). At least one of the headers (2, 3) is partitioned by means of a partition member (8) into a plurality of header sections (2b, 2c) arranged in the longitudinal direction of the header (2). An outlet-side joint member (14) having a refrigerant channel (15) communicating with a refrigerant outlet (9), and adapted to connect a refrigerant outlet pipe is fixed to the header (2) which is partitioned into the plurality of header sections (2b, 2c). The partition member (8) is integrally formed on the outlet-side joint member (14). This heat exchanger exhibits an improvement in workability in terms of provisional fixation of a partition member.
