Three heat exchange paths P1 to P3 each formed by a plurality of heat exchange tubes 2 successively arranged in the vertical direction are provided in a condenser 1. A first header tank 3 and a second header tank 4 are separately provided at the left end portion of the condenser 1. The heat exchange tubes 2 of the first heat exchange path P1 are connected to the first header tank 3. The heat exchange tubes 2 of the second and the third heat exchange paths P2 and P3 are connected to the second header tank 4. A third header tank 5 is provided at the right end portion of the condenser 1, and the heat exchange tubes 2 of all the heat exchange paths P1 to P3 are connected thereto. The first header tank 3 and the second header tank 4 are positionally shifted from each other as viewed from above. The upper end of the second header tank 4 is located above the lower end of the first header tank 3. The second header tank 4 has a gas-liquid separation function making use of gravitational force. According to the condenser 1, the number of brazing areas can be reduced, and the condensing performance can be improved. |
