The reinforcing plate has a bent portion protruding downward and extending along a longitudinal direction of the tube. The bent portion includes at least one discharge hole to discharge a condensed water. The discharge hole is formed by an upstream rib extending from the upper side toward the discharge hole in an upstream region and a downstream rib extending from the upper side toward the discharge hole in a downstream region, and a height dimension of the upstream rib is different from a height dimension of the downstream rib at least partially along a longitudinal direction of the tube.

A plurality of spacer devices for incorporation into a bent-tube heat exchanger that includes a spine and one or more fingers that protrude from opposite sides of the spine. The fingers are configured to exert a force against the tubes and to provide and maintain a separation between the tubes in the folded region. A heat exchanger includes a plurality of the spacer devices, such that one spacer device is positioned on every two tubes. The tubes may also include a coating in the folded region in order to reduce corrosion and increase the life-time of the heat exchanger. The method of forming the heat exchanger includes placing one of the spacer devices on every other tube, such that the fingers lay on the tubes in the region to be folded and assist in the folding process.

The invention relates to a counter flow enthalpy exchanger (1) having a parallelogram-shaped central part (11), whose ends in the flow direction through the exchanger it is joined by end parts (12, 13), which become narrower in the direction from the central part (11), whereby in order to separate the flow of the heat-transfer medium in the direction from the inner space to the outer space are arranged contour identical and with respect to the flowing medium sealed vapour-permeable lamellae (10) with shaping means for generating turbulent flow, whereby every two adjacent lamellae (10) form one interplate flow channel in the central part (11) one interplate flow channel. The lamella (10) is made as a one-piece self-supporting moulding common to the central part (11) and the end parts (12, 13), whereby it does not have a reinforcing support grid. Two adjacent lamellae (10) form one interplate flow channel in the end part (12, 13), in the walls of which are formed straight protrusions (121, 131) situated in the direction of the heat-transfer medium flow between the central part (11) and corresponding inlet or outlet of this medium.

A heat exchanger for an internal combustion engine transfers heat between fluids and includes a housing having a housing wall and a housing interior bordered at least in regions by the housing wall. The housing interior has a fluid inlet region for introducing a first fluid of the fluids into the housing interior and a fluid outlet region for discharging the first fluid out of the housing interior. The heat exchanger has at least two partition walls, which are at least substantially accommodated in the housing interior and connected to the housing wall of the housing at at least one connection region. The partition walls border at least regions of a fluid receiving chamber, through which a second fluid of the fluids can flow, in order to separate the fluids from one another. The partition walls are connected to one another at least at a joining region associated with the fluid inlet region and adjacent to the fluid receiving chamber in a main fluid flow direction of the first fluid. The partition walls also have a deformation, at least in a joining sub-region of the joining region spaced apart from the connection region, which is provided to at least reduce mechanical tension in the at least one connection region due to a temperature-dependent change in length of the joining region.

A stacked-plate heat exchanger may include a plurality of stacked plates. The plurality of stacked plates may include a plurality of first stacked plates and a plurality of second stacked plates stacked alternately one on top of another. Pairs of adjacent stacked plates may each delimit one of a first cavity for the passage of a first fluid and a second cavity for the passage of a second fluid in an alternating manner. The heat exchanger may also include a support structure that may support the plurality of stacked plates in an edge region to stabilize the second cavity. The plurality of stacked plates may each include a first opening and at least two second openings arranged around the first opening. The heat exchanger may also include a plurality of webs each arranged between two adjacent second openings. The plurality of webs may form the support structure.

A heat pipe including a vapor line having a flow path through which a working fluid vapor flows, wherein the vapor line includes walls opposite to each other across the flow path, and a support post disposed in the flow path and spaced apart from the walls, wherein the walls are made of a plurality of metal layers stacked one over another, and the support post is made of a single seamless member having the same thickness as the walls.

An arc-shaped plate heat exchanger, including a cylindrical housing and a heat-exchanging plate assembly. The heat-exchanging plate assembly includes two groups of arc-shaped heat-exchanging plates symmetrically disposed at either side of the axis of the housing. In each group of the arc-shaped heat-exchanging plate, multiple arc-shaped heat-exchanging plates are arranged from the housing center outward and form isolating first and second fluid channels, the plates' diameters increasing outward. During heat exchange, cold fluid enters the heat exchanger from the housing's first fluid inlet, and flows through straight channels of the arc-shaped heat-exchanging plates to exit from a first fluid outlet, while the hot fluid enters the heat exchanger from a second fluid entrance on the side wall of the housing, and flows through arc-shaped channels of the arc-shaped heat-exchanging plates to exit from a second fluid outlet. Heat exchange between the cold and hot fluid is thus achieved.
