Abstract

A heat exchanger for a refrigeration cycle that in terms of functionality and quality is within the allowable range of and comparable to a conventional heat exchanger for a refrigeration cycle, has substantially the same structure as a conventional heat exchanger for a refrigeration cycle, and enables reduced costs, as well as method for manufacturing the heat exchanger are provided. A heat exchanger for a refrigeration cycle is configured so that a refrigerant discharged from a compressor is circulated to a condenser, a capillary tube, an evaporator, a suction pipe, and the compressor, and so that the external surfaces of the capillary tube and the suction pipe are thermally in contact with each other. The material of the capillary tube and the suction pipe is aluminum. The locations at which the external surfaces of the capillary tube and the suction pipe are joined where fillets of a brazing material being an Al—Si alloy and a Zn—Al alloy are formed.
