Air conditioner

An air conditioner comprising:

• a unit casing including a unit suction opening and a unit blowout opening;
• a partition member partitioning the unit casing into a fan chamber communicating with the unit suction opening and a heat exchanger chamber communicating with the unit blowout opening, the partition member including a flat plate section having a communication opening being formed therein, the communication opening allowing the fan chamber and the heat exchanger chamber to communicate;
• an impeller being disposed in the fan chamber;
• a scroll casing including a scroll body section having a scroll suction opening, the scroll casing housing the impeller and a cylindrical scroll outlet section, the scroll outlet section having a scroll blowout opening disposed in correspondence to the communication opening;
• a heat exchanger being disposed inside the heat exchanger chamber so as to face the scroll blowout opening such that air that has been blown out into the heat exchanger chamber from the scroll blowout opening is blown out from the unit blowout opening after passing through the heat exchanger;
• and
• a wall section projecting from the heat exchanger side of the flat plate section of the partition member, the wall section being disposed on the outer circumference side of the communication opening and intersecting the heat exchanger side of the flat plate section of the partition member when the scroll outlet section and the flat plate section are seen from a direction facing the scroll blowout opening, an intersection of the communication opening side of the wall section and the heat exchanger side of the flat plate section being arranged at a predetermined distance from the circumference edge of the communication opening, the predetermined distance being greater than zero.
