Abstract: An inner fin is an offset fin having a wavy cross-section that is perpendicular to an oil flowing direction, and has a louver that is partially cut and bent in a direction parallel with the oil flowing direction. The wavy cross-section is defined by alternately placing first-side convex parts and second-side convex parts. A fin height fh is defined by a distance from the first-side convex part to the second-side convex part in the cross-section. An area surrounded by the inner fin, a tube, and the first-side or second-side convex parts located adjacent with each other on the same side in the cross-section is converted into a corresponding circle having a diameter de. When a relationship of X=de/fh0.3 is defined, the diameter of the corresponding circle and the fin height respectively have dimensions that satisfy a relationship of 0.5?X?1.0.
