AIR CONDITIONING UNIT FOR VEHICLE

An air conditioning unit for a vehicle includes: a heat exchanger arranged in an engine compartment partitioned by a fire wall from a cabin; a first case arranged in the engine compartment to house the heat exchanger; and a second case arranged in the cabin to send air from the heat exchanger into the cabin. The fire wall has: a through hole passing through the fire wall so as to connect the first case and the second; and an air passage hole that defines an air passage to send air from the cabin into the engine compartment. The heat exchanger is arranged so that an entire area of the air passage hole is located inside a projection area defined by projecting the heat exchanger from a front to a rear of the vehicle.
