Abstract
A baffle and a heat exchanger with the baffle are provided. The baffle is disposed inside a header pipe of the heat exchanger, and divides the header pipe into two sections along the axial direction. The baffle supports a refrigerant duct which is set inside the header pipe along the axial direction. The baffle is a split type, and includes a first baffle member and a second baffle member connected together via an engagement structure. The installation efficiency of the baffle and the installation quality of the refrigerant duct are enhanced, and the reliability of the heat exchanger is also improved.
