Abstract
An evaporator includes a plurality of heat exchange tubes extending vertically and arranged in rows spaced apart from each other in a front-rear direction. A drainage acceleration member extending vertically is disposed between the adjacent front and rear heat exchange tubes. A gap is present between each of the adjacent front and rear heat exchange tubes, and the drainage acceleration member disposed between the front and rear heat exchange tubes. The gaps serve as drain channels. The evaporator exhibits excellent drainage of condensed water.
