[14] In addition, the refrigerant supply / discharge header 2 is divided into an upper portion where the supply pipe 12 is connected and a lower portion where the discharge pipe 14 is connected, and is supplied into the refrigerant supply / discharge header 2. All the refrigerant is discharged after being circulated along the refrigerant pipe (6).
[15] The refrigerant pipe 6 has a cross-sectional shape formed in a long ellipse shape in the horizontal direction and is horizontal and is installed between the refrigerant supply / discharge header 2 and the refrigerant passage header 4, and a plurality of the refrigerant pipes 6 are parallel in the vertical direction. Is installed.
