Abstract
A vehicle heat exchanger includes a low-temperature side radiator, a condenser, and a high-temperature side radiator, which are aligned in an airflow direction and are integrated together. The low-temperature side radiator includes an inflow portion and an upper path, which are located in an upper portion thereof. In addition, the low-temperature side radiator includes a lower path and an outlet portion, which are located in a lower portion thereof and communicate with the upper path. A subcooler of the condenser overlaps, in the airflow direction, with at least a part of the lower path of the low-temperature side radiator. As a result, thermal influence by the low-temperature side radiator on the subcooler of the condenser can be reduced.
