Abstract

See full text

A heat exchanger includes fins that are arranged in a direction orthogonal to a direction in which air flows and a heat transfer pipe that extends through the fins and that is bonded and fixed to the fins when the heat transfer pipe is radially expanded by a pipe-expanding method. Tall projections and short projections are provided on an inner surface of the heat transfer pipe. The tall projections are arranged in a circumferential direction and extend in an axial direction of the heat transfer pipe. The short projections are arranged between the tall projections and extend in the axial direction. Opposing side surfaces of the tall and short projections after the expansion of the heat transfer pipe are so inclined that when extensions are drawn from the side surfaces, the extensions cross each other in an inner region of the heat transfer pipe.
