A compound type heat exchanger has a core part including a plurality of heat
exchanging
pipes and fins juxtaposed and alternately stacked into a lamination. Header pipes
are connected to both ends of the pipes. Partition walls are provided in the header
pipes. At a boundary of the partition wall and a spatial part, the core part is
divided into two parts providing an oil cooler unit on one hand and a condenser
unit on the other hand. The spatial part is defined in the core part, corresponding
to the intermediate portion between the partition walls in the header pipe. Owing
to the provision of the spatial part in the core part, heat conduction from the
oil cooler unit to the condenser unit can be suppressed.
