A slim vapor chamber includes a first plate, a second plate and a capillary structure. The periphery of the second plate is connected with that of the first plate to form a chamber. The capillary structure is disposed on an inner wall of the chamber. Both of a side of the first plate facing the second plate and a side of the second plate facing the first plate are formed with a plurality of supporting structures, which include a plurality of supporting pillars and a plurality of supporting plates, by an etching process.

A cooling device with a heat exchanger through which air flows and at least one fan arranged on the heat exchanger, forming a radial gap for generating airflow through the heat exchanger. The heat exchanger having a front face through which air flows which points toward the fan and is covered in portions by the fan, so that the front face is divided into a first subface that is at least partially covered by the fan and a second subface that is free of the fan. The cooling device has a guide sleeve arranged between the heat exchanger and the fan so as to close the radial gap at least in portions, forms a flow channel leading from an air outlet of the fan to the first subface of the front face, fluidically connects the air outlet to the first subface, and fluidically separates the same from the second subface.

A fluid container that can prevent a container from being in contact with a heat source fluid and stably hold the heat source fluid, even if corrosive, in the container to perform heat recovery and the like. A first fluid and a second fluid are both allowed to flow into and out of a container body 10. The second fluid is supplied into the container body by a second fluid supply unit 30 to form a layer of the second fluid flowing down along an inner surface of the container body 10, causing the second fluid to be interposed between the first fluid and the inner surface of the container body. This eliminates deterioration of the container body due to corrosion of the container body by the fact that the first fluid has contact with the inner surface of the container body, as well as scale precipitation from the first fluid.

The disclosure relates to fin inserts for heat and mass exchangers and corresponding methods. For instance, in some examples, a fin insert to a heat and mass exchanger includes a generally rigid, longitudinally-extending member that includes a top portion and side portions. The side portions may be disposed on opposite sides of the top portion, and may include a concave shape facing away from one another. The side portions may further are each be positioned around a portion of a respective heat transfer tube.

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.

Heat exchanger assembly comprising a ram air flow channel (14) extending in a longitudinal direction, and characterized in that said assembly comprises: at least two separate heat exchangers (12a, 12b) that are adjacent in a transverse direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, are arranged in the ram air flow channel (14), and are configured such that the ram air passing through said channel (14) forms a cold pass of each heat exchanger (12a, 12b) by passing through said heat exchanger (12a, 12b) in said longitudinal direction, each heat exchanger (12a, 12b) also being configured for the passage therethrough of a fluid that is intended to be cooled and that forms a hot pass (20a, 20b); and an air passage which is provided between the heat exchangers and forms a thermally insulating air gap (18) between said exchangers (12a, 12b), and through which the ram air flows, said air passage extending in said longitudinal direction of said ram air flow channel (14).
