That is, in the second embodiment, as illustrated in FIG. 9 , the grooves 25 are only formed in the inner and outer surfaces of the continuous portion 21 , in the groove forming candidate range that corresponds to the above-mentioned predetermined part of the outer surface 5 a of the inner pipe 5 , the outer surface 19 a of the inner close-contact portion 19 , and the inner and outer surfaces of the continuous portion 21 .
  • the liquid refrigerant can efficiently be gathered on the inner and outer surfaces of the continuous portion 21 , which have the higher effectiveness as the heat transfer surfaces. Even when the gas-liquid two-phase flow flows in the second flow path, the heat exchange performance can be enhanced by effectively utilizing the heat transfer surfaces.
  • FIG. 10 is a view according to the third embodiment of the present invention, for illustrating in the same manner as in FIG. 3 .
  • the third embodiment is the same as the above-mentioned first embodiment except for a part described below. Further, the third embodiment is the same as the first embodiment also in that the third embodiment may be carried out by the refrigeration cycle system of FIG. 5 to FIG. 8 .
  • a double-pipe heat exchanger 61 is also an example in which the grooves 25 extending along the flow direction are formed in at least a part of the groove forming candidate range.
  • the grooves 25 are only formed in the above-mentioned predetermined part of the outer surface 5 a of the inner pipe 5 and the outer surface 19 a of the inner close-contact portion 19 , in the groove forming candidate range that corresponds to the above-mentioned predetermined part of the outer surface 5 a of the inner pipe 5 , the outer surface 19 a of the inner close-contact portion 19 , and the inner and outer surfaces of the continuous portion 21 .
  • the heat exchange performance can be enhanced by effectively utilizing the heat transfer surfaces.
  • the above-mentioned first embodiment may be modified so that the grooves 25 are formed also in the outer surface 17 a of the outer close-contact portion 17 of the heat transfer area increasing pipe 11 .
  • the grooves 25 are formed in the entire outer surface of the heat transfer area increasing pipe 11 as a uniform process.
  • facilitation of manufacture due to the uniformity of the process can be achieved.
  • the outer surface 17 a of the outer close-contact portion 17 of the heat transfer area increasing pipe 11 which is held in close contact with the outer pipe 3 , is less important as the heat transfer surface.
  • the modification does not lower the effectiveness of the present invention from the viewpoint of utilization of the heat transfer surface. That is, easiness of the manufacture can be enhanced while suitably maintaining effective utility of the heat transfer surface of the present invention.
