Surface portions A with a low heat capacity and surface portions B to which frost or ice is poorly bound or attached are discretely distributed on the heat exchange surface. The surface portions A and the surface portions B have features by which, when heating the heat exchanger to which frost or ice is attached, frost or ice in contact with the surface portions A melts earlier than frost or ice in contact with the surface portions B, and at least a part of frost or ice attached to the surface portions B is made partially continuous with at least a part of frost or ice attached to the surface portions A and is thereby released from the surface portions B by its own weight. The heat exchanger having such a heat exchange surface is used as an evaporator of a refrigeration apparatus. |
