A dual pass heat exchanger for cooling and dehumidifying an airstream has adjacent passes for air flow in which air flow is in opposite directions being counter-flow and parallel-flow passes. A cooling coil contains flowing chilled liquid refrigerant extending through all of the passes, and the coiling coil has fins on outer surfaces thereof for promoting efficient thermal transfer, whereby density of the fins in the counter-flow passes is greater than density in the parallel-flow passes, whereby fin density is varied in fin style, locational density, thickness and/or depth.

A heat exchanger includes fins and a plurality of pairs of cut-and-raised parts. Each pair of the cut-and-raised parts are positioned on both left and right sides in a width direction on a downstream side in a heating gas flowing direction around an outer circumference surface of each of upstream pipe body parts and face a downstream part on the outer circumference surface with a first gap therebetween. A width between upstream end parts of each pair of the cut-and-raised parts is larger than an outer diameter of each of the upstream pipe body parts. In addition, each pair of the cut-and-raised parts are inclined such that a width between downstream end parts becomes smaller than the width between the upstream end parts. A heating gas passing part having a width narrower than a dimension therebetween is provided in a region between two adjacent upstream pipe body parts.

3D printed thermal management devices and corresponding methods of manufacturing are described herein. A thermal management device includes a single contiguous component including at least a portion of a first heat exchanger and at least a portion of a second heat exchanger. The second heat exchanger is of a different type than the first heat exchanger.

The airflow distribution device can include a perforated plate having perforations of various dimensions or various sized vanes positioned in the path of airflow.

A refrigerator may include a cabinet defining a low-temperature storage space and a machine chamber in which a compressor and a condenser are disposed; and an evaporator disposed in rear of the storage space, wherein air flows upwards along the evaporator and thus cools down to lower a temperature of the storage space. The evaporator may include a cooling pipe in and along which refrigerant flows; and a plurality of cooling fins surrounding an outer face of the cooling pipe. The cooling pipe may be constructed so that the refrigerant flows downward along and in the cooling pipe.
