Abstract:
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a refrigerator such that an increase in the volume of a first header and a second header can be suppressed. A refrigerator (10) comprises a housing (20) and a refrigerant circuit (30). The refrigerant circuit (30) is housed in the housing (20). The refrigerant circuit (30) includes a compressor (31), a condenser (32), a decompression device (33), and an evaporator (34). The refrigerant circuit (30) is configured so that a refrigerant flows through the compressor (31), the condenser (32), the decompression device (33), and the evaporator (34) in this order. The condenser (32) includes a first header, a second header, and a plurality of flat tubes. The second header is disposed apart from the first header in a first direction. The plurality of flat tubes extend in the first direction and are connected to each of the first and second headers, and extend in a second direction that intersects the first direction. The first header and the second header each have an inner circumference formed in the shape of an ellipse with a short axis and a long axis. The short axis of the inner circumference is along the first direction, and the long axis is along the second direction.
