PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a refrigerant flow divider capable of uniformly distributing a refrigerant and reducing pressure loss. SOLUTION: In this refrigerant flow divider composed of an inlet pipe 12 in which the refrigerant Xin flows, a flow divider main body 11 having a cavity inside, and a plurality of branch pipes 13, 13... from which the refrigerant Xout flows out, 2≤L/D<SB>2</SB>≤8 is satisfied when a length of the flow divider main body 11 is Lmm, and an inner diameter of the flow divider main body 11 is D<SB>2</SB>mm, thus the flow divider of small pressure loss and small difference (dispersion) in flow rates of paths from an outlet of the flow divider to the heat exchanger, with respect to the change of about installation angle±10°, the change of dryness (0.2-0.4) of the inlet refrigerant Xin, or the change of refrigerant flow rate (50-100%), can be provided.
