Abstract
In an air conditioning apparatus where air flows through a cooling heat exchanger ( ) upwardly from below, it is an object to improve draining performance of condensed water in the cooling heat exchanger ( ). To achieve this object, the cooling heat changer ( ) for cooling air is disposed in a case ( ) forming an air passage to be inclined by a small angle (&thgr;) from a horizontal direction, the inclination direction of the cooling heat exchanger ( ) is the same direction as a longitudinal direction (B) of tubes ( ) through which cooling fluid flows, and the cooling heat exchanger ( ) is disposed so that a flow direction (A) of air flowing into a lower side of the cooling heat exchanger ( ) is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction (B) of the tubes ( ).
