WATER-COOLED CONDENSER

A water-cooled condenser that exchanges heat between refrigerant of an air conditioner for a vehicle and coolant, and then send the refrigerant out to a air-cooled condenser through a refrigerant outlet port. The refrigerant outlet port is connected with the air-cooled condenser at a position that doesn't overlap a bumper reinforcement arranged in front of the air-cooled condenser at a front section of the vehicle when viewed along an airflow direction toward the air-cooled condenser. In the water-cooled condenser, the refrigerant that flows into the air-cooled condenser through the refrigerant outlet port flows much at a position that doesn't overlap the bumper reinforcement, so that superior heat radiation performance can be brought by a sufficient cooling airflow volume. Therefore, total heat radiation performance achieved by the air-cooled condenser and the water-cooled condenser can be improved.
