An object is to provide a heat transfer tube support structure capable of preventing deterioration of the reliability and the durability of a heat transfer tube. In a steam generator (heat exchanger) having a lower barrel (vessel), heat transfer tubes disposed in the lower barrel, and tube support plates disposed in the lower barrel and having heat transfer tube insertion holes opened in a thickness direction, support portions for supporting the heat transfer tubes are formed to the intermediate portions of the inner surfaces of the heat transfer tube insertion holes in the axial direction of the heat transfer tube insertion holes, and the regions between the support portions and the respective open ends of the heat transfer tube insertion holes are formed of inclined surfaces inclining in a radial direction outwardly in the heat transfer tube insertion holes toward the open ends, respectively.
