Abstract (en)

A heat exchanger that is supplied with air by a fan includes a fin that is plate-shaped, a first heat transfer tube that is flat and extends through the fin, and a second heat transfer tube that is flat and extends through the fin and is disposed at a distance from the first heat transfer tube in a gravity direction. The first heat transfer tube has a first upwind end located upwind and a first downwind end located downwind. The second heat transfer tube has a second upwind end located upwind and a second downwind end located downwind. The fin has an upwind fin end and a downwind fin end. Where the first upwind end and the second upwind end are connected by a first imaginary line and the first downwind end and the second downwind end are connected by a second imaginary line, the fin has an upwind fin region defined by the upwind fin end and the first imaginary line and a downwind fin region defined by the second imaginary line and the downwind fin end. A dimension of the upwind fin region is larger than a dimension of the downwind fin region in a passing direction.
