A heat exchanger and method for producing such a heat exchanger which during operation in a flow direction is flown through by a medium to be cooled and by two different cooling media. A power plant has a generator cooled by means of a generator cooling gas and a heat exchanger cooling the generator cooling gas.

A heat exchanger which may be used in an engine, such as a vehicle engine for an aircraft or orbital launch vehicle. is provided. The heat exchanger may be configured as generally drum-shaped with a multitude of spiral sections, each containing numerous small diameter tubes. The spiral sections may spiral inside one another. The heat exchanger may include a support structure with a plurality of mutually axially spaced hoop supports, and may incorporate an intermediate header. The heat exchanger may incorporate recycling of methanol or other antifreeze used to prevent blocking of the heat exchanger due to frost or ice formation.

Low head loss systems are detailed. The systems may include chambers having low impedance to water flow therethrough and repositionable gates or other valves within the chambers. The valves may direct water as a function of whether an associated heating device is active. At least some gates may incorporate poppet valves or other high-flow by-passes.

A flooring underlayment includes a base membrane and a cover membrane. The base membrane is configured to be installed between a subfloor and floor tiles to allow movement of the floor tiles relative to the subfloor. The cover membrane is configured to be coupled to the base membrane to form a flat surface for supporting the floor tiles. The cover membrane is configured to be coupled to the base membrane using at least one of a snug fit and a snap fit.

A heat exchange system of a turbomachine, includes a heat exchanger including a support wall, a plurality of fins each extending in a radial direction from a radially outer surface of the support wall, and a cover covering the fins, wherein the cover is connected, upstream in the direction of flow of the air flow, to a first profiled wall, and downstream to a second profiled wall, the first profiled wall being arranged upstream from the fins and configured to guide and slow down the flow of air entering the heat exchanger through the fins, and the second profiled wall being arranged downstream from the fins and configured so as to accelerate the flow of air leaving the heat exchanger, wherein the cover has an at least partially curvilinear aerodynamic profile and an outer peripheral surface having surface continuity with radially outer surfaces of the first and second walls.
