Abstract (en)
[origin: EP2557378A1] A Y-shaped branch pipe (7) includes a pinch (18) formed by pinching middle portions at an end of a cylindrical pipe (15) to bring the portions into close contact with each other and a glasses-shaped bifurcated portion (17), formed on both sides of the pinch (18), that splits a refrigerant flow into two channels (19A, 19B), and L/D is 0.3 to 0.5, wherein L is the distance between a pinch base (20) at which the portions are brought into close contact with each other by pinching and a cylindrical portion of the cylindrical pipe (15), and D is the outer diameter of the cylindrical pipe (15).
