Abstract
In a single row evaporator coil having a last tube receiving refrigerant in a superheated condition, at least one baffle is provided to divert the flow of air passing over the superheat tube such that it also passes over a nonsuperheat tube so that air can be dehumidified by the cooling effect of the nonsuperheat tube prior to the air being passed downstream.
