A heat exchanger includes a hollow pillar shaped honeycomb structure, a first outer cylindrical member, an inner cylindrical member, an upstream cylindrical member, a cylindrical connecting member, and a downstream cylindrical member. The heat exchanger further includes a valve mechanism having an on-off valve located on a downstream end portion side of the inner cylindrical member. The valve mechanism is rotatably supported by a bearing arranged on a radially outer side of the downstream cylindrical member, and the on-off valve is fixed to a shaft arranged so as to penetrate the downstream cylindrical member and the inner cylindrical member.

A heat exchanger may comprise a primary fluid path comprising an outer shell enclosing a primary cavity through which a primary fluid may flow; and a secondary fluid path coupled to the primary fluid path comprising a secondary fluid supply conduit, a secondary fluid exit conduit, and a first heat transfer element coupled fluidly between the secondary fluid supply conduit and the secondary fluid exit conduit, wherein the secondary fluid path is configured such that a secondary fluid may flow through the secondary fluid supply conduit, the first heat transfer element, and the secondary fluid exit conduit, which are in fluid communication with one another. The first heat transfer element, and additional heat transfer elements, may be disposed in the primary cavity such that the primary fluid contacts a secondary outer shell of the first heat transfer element.

A liquid-cooled heat dissipation device is disclosed, comprising a main body, a centrifugal pump, an inlet pipe, an outlet pipe, a centrifugal fan and a motor. The main body comprises a shaft hole, liquid flow channels and airflow channels. The centrifugal pump guides a cooling liquid through the inlet pipe, main body and outlet pipe. The centrifugal fan guides air into the main body axially from the shaft hole. After passing through the centrifugal fan, the air forms centrifugal airflows and leaves the body radially through the airflow channels. With an extended flow path of the cooling liquid and the radial flow of the centrifugal airflow provided by the present invention, the temperature of the cooling liquid may be quickly reduced and the cooling effect may be improved. Thus, the structure is compact, small, light-weight, easy-to-assemble.

A heat exchanger, in particular for a motor vehicle, comprising: a first conduit for a first fluid, comprising a first manifold, a second manifold, and a plurality of tubes arranged in at least two parallel stacks having a first terminal tube and a second terminal tube opposite to the first terminal tube, the tubes being fluidly connected with the first manifold and the second manifold to provide at least one U-turn for the first fluid; a second conduit for a second fluid comprising a housing body arranged to at least partially encapsulate the first conduit, wherein the second conduit is fluidly isolated from the first conduit and, a baffle plate deployed in-between the stacks of the tubes and the manifolds, enabling a U-turn of the second fluid in the vicinity of the first manifold, characterised in that, the baffle plate comprises a first restricting member protruding towards the first manifold, configured to partially limit the U-turn of the second fluid at the level of the first terminal tubes of the stacks.

A heat exchanger includes heat transfer tubes disposed in an up-down direction and a distributor distributes refrigerant to the heat transfer tubes. The distributor has a main body having a first flow passage through which refrigerant flows upward, and an insertion part disposed inside the main body. When an upper one and a lower one of two among the heat transfer tubes are a first heat transfer tube and a second heat transfer tube, respectively, the insertion part is installed between the first heat transfer tube and the second heat transfer tube. The main body has a second flow passage through which refrigerant flows upward. Refrigerant having passed through the first flow passage and the second flow passage flows through the first heat transfer tube, and refrigerant having passed through the first flow passage flows through the second heat transfer tube.

A liquid-cooling radiator includes liquid pipes, heat-dissipating fins arranged on the liquid pipes, two reservoirs, a liquid-collecting box, a liquid pump, and a heat-dissipating base. The two reservoirs are mounted to two ends of the liquid pipes, respectively. The reservoir at one end is partitioned into a first cold liquid reservoir and a second cold liquid reservoir, and the reservoir at the other end is partitioned into a first hot liquid reservoir and a second hot liquid reservoir, thereby forming a bilateral circulation. The liquid-cooling radiator effectively improves the balance and stability of liquid flow and has a better heat dissipation effect.
