Abstract

A heat exchanger that includes a first manifold; a second manifold; a plurality of refrigerant tubes configured to fluidically couple the first and second manifolds; a plurality of fins placed between the plurality of refrigerant tubes, such that the fins and refrigerant tubes define a core having a plurality of open channels that allow air to flow there through; and a water-shedding device positioned approximate to the first manifold with a separation distance being maintained there between. At least a portion of the water-shedding device extends into one or more fin free windows located between the plurality of refrigerant tubes, such that condensate is extracted from between the refrigerant tubes.
