Heat exchanger tube and heat exchanger
First Claim
1. A heat exchanger tube provided with a flat tube main body with a certain length and having a plurality of refrigerant flow passages each extending in a tube longitudinal direction and disposed in parallel in a tube widthwise direction,wherein the following relations are established:
-
Ac/At×
100=30 to 45; and
P/L×
100=200 to 325,wherein a total cross-sectional area of the tube main body (including the refrigerant passage portions) is “
At”
;
a total cross-sectional area of the refrigerant flow passages is “
Ac”
;
an external peripheral length of the tube main body is “
L”
; and
a total internal peripheral length of the refrigerant passages is “
P”
,wherein the relation of H=0.5 to 1.5 mm is established, wherein a height of the tube main body is “
H”
, andwherein the relation of W=10 to 20 mm is established, wherein a width of the tube main body is “
W”
.

Abstract
A heat exchanger tube (1), wherein a plurality of refrigerant passages (5) extending in the longitudinal direction of the tube are formed in a flat tube body (2) with a specified length parallel with each other in the lateral direction of the tube and, where the overall cross sectional area of the tube body (2) is (At), the overall cross sectional area of the refrigerant passage (5) is (Ac), the outer peripheral length of the tube body (2) is (L), and the overall inner peripheral length of the refrigerant passage (5) is (P), set so that the relation of Ac/At×100=30 to 55 and P/L×100=150 to 325 can be established, whereby a heat exchanging performance can be increased.
