    摘要: A heat exchanger includes a main pipe through which refrigerant flows, a plurality of tubes connected to the main pipe to allow refrigerant passing through the plurality of tubes to exchange heat with air, and a refrigerant distributor disposed between the main pipe and the plurality of tubes, to distribute refrigerant passing through the main pipe to the plurality of tubes. The refrigerant distributor includes an upstream structure connected to the main pipe and including a plurality of first distribution flow paths to which the refrigerant passing through the main pipe are distributed, and a downstream structure including a plurality of second distribution flow paths communicating with the plurality of first distribution flow paths, and a plurality of refrigerant outlets communicating with the plurality of second distribution flow paths so as to allow the refrigerant to be discharged to the plurality of tubes.

    摘要: An air conditioner including a distributor capable of adjusting the distribution of fluid flow to branched pipes is provided. The air conditioner includes a distributor configured to distribute a fluid flowing therethrough, and a heat exchanger including refrigerant pipes through which the fluid distributed by the distributor flows, the heat exchanger configured to heat exchange the fluid with air. The distributor includes an outer pipe having a cylindrical shape through which the fluid passes, and branched pipes. Each of the branched pipes includes one end connected to the outer pipe by being inserted into the outer pipe and includes a fluid passing part provided to allow the fluid to flow in or out. At least two branched pipes are configured such that at least one of an insertion length and a diameter of the fluid passing part inserted into the outer pipe are different from each other.

    摘要: An air conditioner including a distributor configured to distribute a fluid to a heat exchanger. The distributor comprises a main pipe; a partition defining a plurality of distribution paths in the main pipe; a first branched pipe inserted into the main pipe as much as first length, linked to a first distribution path of the plurality of distribution paths, connected to a first portion of the heat exchanger; and a second branched pipe inserted into the main pipe as much as second length different from the first length, linked to the first distribution path, connected to a second portion of the heat exchanger. A flow velocity of air exchanging heat at the first portion of the heat exchanger is faster than a flow velocity of air exchanging heat at the second portion of the heat exchanger. The first length is shorter than the second length.
