Abstract

A vehicle air-conditioner has a casing, a first heat exchanger, and a second heat exchanger. The casing forms an air passage through which air flows toward inside of a vehicle cabin. The first heat exchanger is housed in the casing and performs a sensible heat exchange between the air flowing in the air passage and a heating medium. The second heat exchanger is housed in the casing and performs a sensible heat exchange between the heating medium and air that has exchanged sensible heat in the first heat exchanger. The first heat exchanger and the second heat exchanger respectively have a plurality of tubes through which the heating medium flows. A longitudinal direction of the plurality of tubes of the first heat exchanger and a longitudinal direction of the plurality of tubes of the second heat exchanger are the same direction as each other.
