US 2019/0195537 A1 · HEAT EXCHANGER

Abstract

A heat exchanger provided with: a plate member having a flat bottom part and a refrigerant flow path formed therein; and a plate cover for covering the plate member. The plate cover has a refrigerant inlet communicating with an area on one side of the refrigerant flow path, and a refrigerant outlet communicating with an area on the other side of the refrigerant flow path. The refrigerant flow path is more densely arranged in an area far from a straight line connecting the area that is on the one side and communicates with the refrigerant inlet to the area that is on the other side and communicates with the refrigerant outlet, than in an area close to the straight line connecting the area that is on the one side and communicates with the refrigerant inlet to the area that is on the other side and communicates with the refrigerant outlet.
