Abstract:
It is intended to suppress occurrence of a crack in a fixed portion of a tube with respect to a tank. A plurality of tubes (4A to 4D) are fixed to a sidewall (9) in a state in which they penetrate through the sidewall (9) via respective ones of a plurality of through-holes (9b) formed in the sidewall (9) in such a manner as to be arrayed in a line along a longitudinal direction. A heat exchanger (1) comprises a protective member (5) fixed to the sidewall (9) to protect a nearest tube (4A) nearest to an end wall (10) among the plurality of tubes (4A to 4D), wherein the protective member (5) has a barrier portion (13) interposed between the end wall (10) and an outlet-side end portion (4b) of the nearest tube (4A) disposed inside the sidewall (9).
