Abstract

The evaporator includes the upper side and lower header membersanddisposed at the upper and lower end of the core. One end of each tubeconstituting the upstream-side tube group Pis connected to the inlet-side tank, while the other end to the lower header member. One end of each tubeconstituting the downstream-side tube group Pis connected to the outlet-side tank, while the other end to the lower header member. The refrigerant flowed into the inlet-side tankis introduced into the outlet-side tankby passing through the upstream-side tube group P, the lower header memberand the downstream-side tube group P, so that the refrigerant evaporates by exchanging heat with ambient air A. Accordingly, it improves the heat exchange performance and decreases the thickness.
