Provided is a cooling module for a vehicle, and more particularly, a cooling module placed on a side of the vehicle with three-row mounting parts, in which components are mounted, to maximize cooling efficiency and space utilization inside the vehicle.

A heat exchanger includes: flat pipes arranged such that flat surfaces of the flat pipes are opposed to one another; and fins each including insertion parts that extend in an insertion direction that crosses a direction in which the flat pipes are disposed and a longitudinal direction of the flat pipes. At least part of each of the flat pipes is inserted into a corresponding one of the insertion parts. Each of the fins includes a cut-and-raised part that is cut and raised in a thickness direction between the insertion parts, and a rib disposed between the insertion part and the cut-and-raised part.

A multi-stacked heat exchanger comprises a first heat exchanger and a second heat exchanger. A first end of the first heat exchanger receives a first fluid in a first conduit flowing in a first direction within a plane. A first end of the second heat exchanger receives the first fluid from the first heat exchanger in a second direction flowing opposite to the first direction within the plane. A flow of a second fluid is communicated through the second heat exchanger and then through the first heat exchanger, in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction. The second fluid is in thermal communication with the first fluid in the second heat exchanger and then in the first heat exchanger. By doubling the flowed first fluid back upon itself, embodiments achieve counterflow between the first fluid and second fluid within a compact space.
