Abstract
A laminated heat exchanger for used in automobile air-conditioners includes a plurality of heat exchanger elements laminated together and each having a pair of tanks on one side thereof and connected by a U-shaped channel. The heat exchanger elements are communicated with each other so as to form a flow passage having at least four paths. An inlet and an outlet pipe are disposed in juxtaposition on one side of the laminated heat exchanger which is out of alignment with the path of flow of air to be cooled.
