PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a refrigerant divider capable of stabilizing the flow dividing ratio to a refrigerant passage separated into a plurality, regardless of a flow speed of a refrigerant. SOLUTION: This refrigerant divider has a refrigerant inflow pipe 2 in which the refrigerant flows, a U-shaped refrigerant outflow pipe 3 having on both ends a straight pipe part from which the refrigerant flows out, a refrigerant branch space 4 connected with the refrigerant inflow pipe 2 and the refrigerant outflow pipe 3 and branching off the refrigerant, and a branching projection 5 in a predetermined position on an inner wall surface of the refrigerant branch space 4, and constitutes the refrigerant outflow pipe 3 in a U shape such as the straight pipe part becomes up and down substantially parallel. Since a refrigerant flowing-in and branching part is formed as a horizontal straight line part by connecting the refrigerant inflow pipe 2 to the upper side straight line part, even when a refrigerant flow speed is low, influence of gravity is not received up to a collision with the branching projection 5, and the branching projection 5 normally functions, and the refrigerant can be separated in the predetermined ratio.
