Abstract
A heat exchanger including a first header and a second header; a plurality of flat pipes, each defining a first end connected with the first header and a second end connected with the second header. The plurality of flat pipes are arranged and spaced apart from each other in axial directions of the first and second headers. Each of a plurality of fins is disposed between adjacent flat pipes. The plurality of fins includes first to third fins, in which the heat exchanger has a bending segment and a straight segment adjacent to the bending segment. The first fin is in the straight segment, the second and third fins are in the bending segment, a width of the second fin is larger than a width of the third fin, and the second and third fins are alternately arranged in the axial directions.
