- at least the apex angle ⁇ and the height H of the inner fin 24 are parameters that govern the phenomenon.
- the apex angle ⁇ of the inner fin 24 The smaller the apex angle ⁇ of the inner fin 24, the steeper the side surface, so that the liquid condensed at the tip of the inner fin 24 can be discharged and the performance can be improved. Therefore, in order to improve the performance, the apex angle ⁇ should be small. However, if the apex angle ⁇ is too small, the inner surface groove 23 may be crushed during tube expansion when assembling the heat exchanger, and as a result, the adhesion between the heat transfer fins 21 and the heat transfer tubes 22 may be reduced. For this reason, there exists an appropriate apex angle ⁇ .

Cost increases.
- the lead angle ⁇ of the inner surface groove 23 is smaller. Also, even if the apex angle ⁇ is set small or the height H is set high, the drawing speed similarly decreases, so the production amount per unit time of the heat transfer tube 22 and the heat exchanger decreases, and heat exchange The manufacturing cost of the vessel increases. Therefore, in order to increase the drawing speed of the heat transfer tube 22 and reduce the manufacturing cost of the heat exchanger, it is better that the apex angle ⁇ of the inner fin 24 is larger and the height H of the inner fin 24 is lower.
- the required specifications differ between the load side heat exchanger 15 and the heat source side heat exchanger 13.
- the load-side heat exchanger 15 heat exchanger functioning as a condenser during heating operation

- At least two (more preferably all three) relationships among the above three formulas (1), (2), and (3) are satisfied.
- the relationship of at least two (more preferably all three) of the above three formulas (1-2), (2-2), and (3-2) is satisfied.
- the heat exchanger functions as an evaporator.
- a refrigerant having a lower critical temperature than a normal HFC refrigerant the surface tension tends to be smaller than that of a normal HFC refrigerant.
- a normal HFC-based refrigerant When a normal HFC-based refrigerant is used, a meniscus is formed on the liquid film in the inner surface groove 23, whereby a thin liquid film is formed along the side surface of the inner fin 24, and the evaporation of the liquid refrigerant is promoted.
- a refrigerant with a low critical point is used, a meniscus is less likely to be formed in the liquid film in the inner surface groove 23.
- the pitch P is smaller than when a normal HFC refrigerant is used.
- the wetted area of the film increases and the performance increases.

- the pitch P is evaluated by the ratio P / H of the pitch P to the height H of the inner fin 24.
- FIG. 5 is a graph showing the relationship between the ratio P / H of the pitch P to the height H of the inner fin 24 and the evaporation heat transfer coefficient when a refrigerant having a relatively low critical point is used.
- the horizontal axis of the graph represents the ratio P / H
- the vertical axis represents the evaporation heat transfer coefficient.
- a higher evaporation heat transfer coefficient is obtained compared to the other ranges.
- the heat transfer tube 22 suitable for the refrigerant having a relatively low critical point can be obtained.

- a relatively wide sludge storage space 27 is formed at the bottom of the inner groove 23.
