Provided are battery modules. Each module may comprise an enclosure having a base, the base having a plurality of first holes disposed therein, the enclosure including a coolant input port, a coolant output port; the enclosure having a coolant sub-system for circulating coolant being directed into the enclosure through the coolant input port and the plurality of first holes and out of the enclosure through the coolant output port; a center divider affixed to the enclosure; a module cover coupled to the enclosure at an opposite end of the module from the center divider; a retainer disposed within the enclosure and configured to support a plurality of cells; a current carrier disposed between the module cover and the retainer; and the plurality of cells disposed between the current carrier and the center divider, the cells being coupled to and supported by the retainer.

An un-finned heat exchanger (100). The heat exchanger (100) comprises: a heat exchange tube (1), which comprises a body; a fluid channel (11) formed inside the body; and a collecting tube (2) connected to the heat exchange tube (1). Using the heat exchanger can reduce accumulation of dirt on the heat exchanger.

A heat exchanger includes a core having a plurality of first layers for receiving a first fluid and at least one header arranged in fluid communication with the plurality of first layers. The at least one header is integrally formed ith the core via an additive manufacturing process. The header has a first microstructure and the core has a second, different microstructure.

Methods and systems are provided for a cooling assembly for a vehicle. In one example, the cooling assembly may be a non-rectangular cooler positioned in a front end of the vehicle with an entry duct continuous with the non-rectangular cooler and arranged upstream of the non-rectangular cooler and an exit duct also continuous with the non-rectangular cooler and arranged downstream of the non-rectangular cooler.

Present disclosure relates to air cooling chamber assembly. The air cooling chamber assembly includes: an air intake duct receiving ambient air outside of an internal combustion engine, an air cooling chamber cooling the ambient air received from the air intake duct to generate cooled air, and an air output duct providing the cooled air generated from the air cooling chamber to the internal combustion engine. The air cooling chamber assembly is connected to engine air intake of the internal combustion engine to cool the ambient air to generate the cooled air prior to entering the internal combustion engine, and to provide the cooled air generated to engine air intake of the internal combustion engine. The cooled air from air cooling chamber contains increased amount of oxygen molecules, and increased amount of oxygen molecules in the cooled air improves fuel efficiency and reduces greenhouse gas emission of the internal combustion engine.

An air-cooled heat exchanger has a frame assembly that has a plurality of keyed structural members, where each of the plurality of keyed structural members is interconnected to a corresponding one of the plurality of keyed structural members with a unique mortise and tenon connection joint. Also disclosed is a method for manufacturing and assembling the frame assembly that begins with the step of providing a plurality of keyed structural members that each have a first connection joint component that is uniquely matched to a second connection joint component. The method continues with the step of assembling the frame assembly by interconnecting each of the plurality of keyed structural members using the first and second connection joint components. The method ends with the step of permanently connecting the frame assembly by permanently fastening each of the plurality of keyed structural members.

A heating and cooling system includes a heat exchange section to transfer heat between refrigerant and air in both a heating mode and a cooling mode. The heat exchange section includes at least two refrigerant passes. Refrigerant is circuited through the refrigerant passes in the same direction in both the heating mode and the cooling mode, so that the overall flow orientation between the refrigerant passes and the air is a counter-flow orientation in both the heating mode and the cooling mode.
