Abstract
A condenser for a refrigerator includes an inline arrangement in which a refrigerant tube is arranged such that refrigerant tube parts are arranged in lines in the forward and backward direction, and a staggered arrangement in which the refrigerant tube parts are arranged at the rear side of the inline arrangement in the forward and backward direction to misaligned with each other, such that the difference of air flow between a front side and a rear side thereof is minimized when heat exchange with ambient air in the condenser is performed by blowing operation of a cooling fan installed to a side of the condenser.

A condenser comprising:
- an inline arrangement in which a refrigerant tube is arranged such that refrigerant tube parts are arranged in lines in the forward and backward direction;
- and
- a staggered arrangement in which the refrigerant tube parts are arranged at the rear side of the inline arrangement in the forward and backward direction to misaligned with to each other;
- and
- wherein the ratio of the inline arrangement with respect to the staggered arrangement ranges from 50% to 60%, distance (S1) between the refrigerant tube parts in a row direction ranges from 10 mm to 15 mm, a distance (S2) between the refrigerant tube parts ranges from 5 mm to 10 mm.
