PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an air conditioner in which the system performance can be optimized by surely avoiding various troubles due to shift of the components of two-phase flow in a plurality of refrigerant passages. SOLUTION: A heat exchanger functioning 2 as the condenser of a refrigerant circuit is provided with a plurality of passages 21, 22 for passing refrigerant while distributing, and liquid side piping 23 for passing refrigerant passed through each distribution refrigerant passage 21, 22 while combining. Consequently, the refrigerant is recondensed in the liquid side confluence refrigerant piping 23. When the refrigerant is fed reversely, a heat exchanger 2 functioning as an evaporator is provided with gas side piping 24 for passing refrigerant passed through each distribution refrigerant passage 21, 22 while combining. Consequently, the refrigerant is evaporated again in the gas side confluence refrigerant piping 24. |
