Disclosed is a louver fin type heat exchanger positioned upright at a certain angle with respect to the ground, wherein lower end portions of louver fins close to the ground are bent toward lower end portions of adjacent louver fins, such that the air passage at the lower end portion close to the ground has cross-section areas that are wide at certain portions and are narrow at other portions thereof. Accordingly, moisture congregates only at a portion where the cross-section of the air passage is great, so that the external air smoothly passes into or out the heat exchanger through the air passage where the moisture congregation does not occur, minimizing the pressure drop, and efficiency in heat exchange of the heat exchanger can be thusly improved.
A louver fin type heat exchanger comprising two or more plates respectively spaced apart from each other and positioned upright at a certain angle with respect to the ground, and a louver fin unit with a wave-pattern cross-section inserted between the plates, whereby an air passage is formed in the spaces between the plates and each louver fin of the louver fin unit, the heat exchanger characterized in that:
