Part of the airflow passes in a direction from the second surface through the airflow hole to flow away.

A heat exchanger having a fins and tubes heat exchanger coupled to a plates heat exchanger and an open sided bypass compartment facing one of the edges of the fin and tubes heat exchanger. The plates heat exchanger has an inlet zone and an outlet zone. The heat exchanger is configured to guide a fluid to flow from the inlet zone, through inlet pathways between plates of the plates heat exchanger, and fins of the fins and tubes heat exchanger then toward the bypass compartment, then in between the fins facing outlet pathways, toward in between the surfaces of the plates facing the outlet pathways, and then toward the outlet zone.

A heat exchanger includes plate-shaped fins and a plurality of heat transfer pipes attached to the fins so as to intersect the fins. The heat transfer pipes are disposed at intervals in a long-edge direction of the fins. The fins have a wave shape at at least a portion thereof and are capable of expanding and contracting in the long-edge direction.

An air conditioner includes a heat exchanger that is arranged in a ventilation flue inside a housing, wherein the heat exchanger includes a plurality of flat tubes, and a fin that includes a plurality of notch portions arranged side by side in a vertical direction, to which the plurality of flat tubes are inserted, and includes intermediate regions each formed between two of the notch portions adjacent to each other in a vertical direction, and a connection region connecting the intermediate regions to each other, first bulging portions that are at least partly positioned on the intermediate regions, and a second bulging portion that overlaps with a gap generated between the first bulging portions and the flat tubes.
