The flat tube has end portions in the longitudinal axis direction of the flat tube, the end portions including a first end portion and a second end portion. The first end portion is positioned closer to the first side edge portion than the second end portion is to the first side edge portion. Each of the plurality of fins includes at least one water guide portion formed at at least one of a position between the first side edge portion and the first end portion, and a position between the second side edge portion and the second end portion, the water guide portion extending in the upper and lower directions, a lower edge portion positioned below the flat tube in the upper and lower directions, and a protruding edge portion positioned below the water guide portion and protruding downwardly relative to the lower edge portion.

A tube for use in a heat exchanger includes an upper portion, a base portion spaced from the upper portion, and a partitioning wall depending from the upper portion. The partitioning wall is bent away and spaced from the base portion in a first section of the tube to form a single flow channel within the tube along the first section. The partitioning wall contacts the base portion in a second section of the tube to form a partition separating a first flow channel from a second flow channel along the second section. The first section of the tube is configured for reception into an opening of a header tank of the heat exchanger.

A heat exchanger includes a plurality of flat tubes in which refrigerant flows and a plurality of fins provided between the plurality of flat tubes and configured to transfer heat of refrigerant flowing in the plurality of flat tubes. An upstream end portion of each of the plurality of flat tubes in an air flow direction is located at the same position as an upstream end portion of each of the plurality of fins or protrudes farther than the upstream end portion of each of the plurality of fins, and an opening port is formed at the upstream end portion of each of the plurality of flat tubes or at the upstream end portion of each of the plurality of fins.

A heat exchanger includes: a plurality of flat tubes each of which has a refrigerant flow passage through which refrigerant flows in an up-down direction, the plurality of flat tubes being arranged parallel to each other at intervals; a plurality of fins each of which is provided between adjacent flat tubes of the plurality of flat tubes; an upper header to which an upper end portion of each of the plurality of flat tubes is connected; and a lower header to which an a lower end portion of each of the plurality of flat tubes is connected. Lower end portions of the plurality of fins are not joined to the lower header, and a lower gap is formed between the lower end portions of the plurality of fins and the lower header.

A multi-channel heat exchanger includes a plurality of heat exchange tubes, each heat exchange tube includes first to fourth heat exchange tube portions which are distributed along a direction from an airflow inlet side to an airflow outlet side. Each heat exchange tube portion includes at least two flow channels. The heat exchange tube has a cross section defined in a thickness direction and a width direction of the heat exchange tubes, and the cross section includes a flow section. A total area of a flow section of the first heat exchange tube portion is A1, a total area of a flow section of the fourth heat exchange tube portion is A4, and the total area A1 of the flow section of the first heat exchange tube portion is 1.05-1.4 times of the total area A4 of the flow section of the fourth heat exchange tube portion.

A heat exchanger includes: a plurality of flat tubes arranged in a height direction of the heat exchanger; a connection portion in which a plurality of connection spaces are provided as spaces with which ends of the plurality of flat tubes are connected; and a refrigerant distributor connected to each of the plurality of connection spaces. The flat tubes each have a first side end portion located on a windward side, a second side end portion located on a leeward side, and a plurality of refrigerant passages arranged between the first and second side end portions. Each flat tube is inclined such that in the height direction, the position of the first side end portion is lower than the position of the second side end portion. The connection spaces are spaced from each other in the height direction, and a lower side of each of the connection spaces has a first region located on the windward side and a second region located on the leeward side, and is inclined such that in the height direction, the position of the first region is lower than a position of the second region.

A heat dissipation device includes a radiator, a first tank, and a pump assembly. The radiator cools liquid and extends in a first direction. The first tank is connected to the radiator, and the liquid passes through the first tank. The pump assembly is connected to the first tank and circulates the liquid flowing in from the first tank. The radiator includes a pipe through which the liquid passes. The pipe extends along the first direction. The pump assembly is located on one side in the first direction of the radiator. The pump assembly includes a first pump, a second pump, and a flow path portion. The first pump feeds and circulates the liquid. The second pump feeds and circulates the liquid. The flow path portion guides the liquid fed from the first pump and the second pump toward an outside of the pump assembly.

A compact, lightweight multilayer heat exchanger for an electric vehicle, including a first heat exchanger configured to enable cooling of a first heat conducting fluid medium traversing therethrough, and a second heat exchanger configured to enable cooling of a second heat conducting fluid medium traversing therethrough, wherein at least portions of the first heat exchanger are in contact with the second heat exchanger enabling heat transfer between the first heat exchanger and second heat exchanger.

An HVAC system includes an evaporator, a condenser, a compressor. A first refrigerant path flows through a first expansion valve, first evaporator inlet, within the evaporator, and out of the evaporator through a first evaporator outlet. A second refrigerant path flows through a second expansion valve, a second evaporator inlet, within the evaporator, and out of the evaporator through a second evaporator outlet. Refrigerant flows from the condenser to the first refrigerant path and the second refrigerant path, and from the first refrigerant path and the second refrigerant path to the compressor.
