Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a smooth flow of refrigerant without any staying, increase a cross sectional area of a flow passage and reduce distribution of the amount of gas-liquid sharing of refrigerant CONSTITUTION:Flow passages 54 and 55 in chambers 48 and 49 in a flat tube 41 are divided into a plurality of segments by some corrugated inner fins 52 and 53 while being divided and formed, Flow of refrigerant is made smooth to increase a cross sectional area of each of the flow passages and then staying of the refrigerant at a U-turn part 50 is eliminated. Separation of gas-liquid two phase flow refrigerant caused by a centrifugal force at the U-turn part 50 is carried out only within the U-shaped flow passage 56 and distribution of the amount of gas-liquid sharing is reduced.

Since the refrigerant flowing in the flat tube 41 flows through the divided flow paths 54 and 55 and the U-shaped flow path 56, the refrigerant flows from the inside to the inside of the fluid passage 51 and from the outside to the outside, and the U-turn portion. The separation of the gas-liquid two-phase flow refrigerant due to the centrifugal force at 50 occurs only in the U-shaped flow path 56, and the distribution of the distribution amount of each gas-liquid of the two-phase flow refrigerant becomes small. Also, U
Since the U-shaped flow path 56 of the turn portion 50 has a U-shape conforming to the shape of the plate 42, stagnation does not occur in the refrigerant flow.
