Abstract
A heat exchanger including a primary inlet manifold that has an inlet port to receive refrigerant from a source, a primary outlet manifold that has an outlet port to discharge refrigerant from the heat exchanger, and a plurality of microchannel tubes fluidly connected between the primary inlet manifold and the primary outlet manifold and spaced apart from each other. Each of the plurality of microchannel tubes has a secondary inlet manifold fluidly coupled to the primary inlet manifold, a secondary outlet manifold fluidly coupled to the primary outlet manifold, and at least one microchannel fluidly coupled between the secondary inlet manifold and the secondary outlet manifold to direct refrigerant to the secondary outlet manifold. The heat exchanger also includes a plurality of fins disposed between adjacent microchannel tubes and oriented to define an airflow path along the longitudinal direction of the microchannel tubes.
