  • Heat exchanger and air-conditioning apparatus including the same
    Patent number: 12044480
    Abstract: A heat exchanger includes a tubular refrigerant distributor having insertion holes spaced from each other in a first direction and into which ends of heat transfer tubes are inserted in a second direction. A first partition plate partitions the refrigerant distributor into a first space into which the ends of the heat transfer tubes are inserted and a second space, larger than the first space, into which the ends of the heat transfer tubes are not inserted; and an inflow pipe provided on a one side-surface side of the refrigerant distributor. The heat transfer tubes are located apart from the first partition plate in the first space. The first partition plate is provided with an orifice that is provided at a location corresponding to a space between adjacent ones of the heat transfer tubes, and that causes the first space and the second space to communicate with each other.
