Abstract
A heat exchanger includes a plurality of flat tubes provided to extend in a first direction, and a plurality of plate-shaped fins having respective surfaces extending in a second direction. The surface has a windward edge and a leeward edge. The plurality of flat tubes include a first flat tube disposed most windward in the second direction, and a second flat tube spaced apart from the first flat tube and disposed most leeward in the second direction. In the second direction, a distance between the leeward edge and a center of a flat shape of the second flat tube is at least one-third of a width between the windward edge and the leeward edge.
