Abstract: A heat exchanger includes a collecting pipe, a number of heat exchange tubes and a distributor. The collecting pipe has a first cavity and a first inner peripheral wall. The heat exchange tube has a second cavity. The distributor is accommodated in the first cavity. The distributor has a main cavity and a flow channel.

Abstract: An air coil unit of a heat exchanger includes tubes organized into separate circuits of serially connected tubes. The tubes of a given circuit are arranged in serially connected circuit portions, where the tubes of each circuit portion are arranged in rows. The circuits are arranged in a parallel flow-cross flow (PFCrF) configuration where the circuit crosses to adjacent rows between circuit portions to compensate for non-uniform air flow across the tubes. In the PFCrF circuit configuration, each circuit of the heat exchanger shares the non-uniformity of air flow, and mitigates the mal fluid distribution inside the tubes due to the non-uniform air flow across tubes.
