An air-conditioning unit is provided, comprising: an input vent for receiving return air; an intermediate vent; an output vent; a blower fan proximate to the input vent for moving the return air from the input vent to the intermediate vent; and an air-conditioner coil between the intermediate vent and the output vent including an active portion including one or more operational air-conditioning coils that receive a first portion of the return air from the intermediate vent, for circulating a coolant, condition the first portion of the return air by heat exchange with the coolant to create conditioned air, and pass the conditioned air to the output vent, and an inactive portion that does not circulate coolant and passes a second portion of the return air as unconditioned air to the output vent, wherein the conditioned air and the unconditioned air pass through the output vent as supply air.

The present invention relates to a dual media safety heat exchanger comprising a first medium chamber configured to allow a first medium flow through the first medium chamber, a second medium chamber configured to allow a second medium flow through the second medium chamber and an intermediate chamber arranged between the first medium chamber and the second medium chamber and being configured to separate the first medium chamber from the second medium chamber so that the first medium is prevented from being mixed with the second medium or vice versa in the circumstance of a leak within the safety heat exchanger. The first medium chamber, the second medium chamber and the intermediate chamber are arranged in a stacked manner, the first medium chamber having a first inlet and a first outlet, the second medium chamber having a second inlet and a second outlet, the first medium chamber, the second medium chamber and the intermediate chamber being defined by a plurality of chamber plates having a configuration, wherein the configuration of each chamber plate is substantially identical irrespective of which chamber it is part of. The invention also relates to a method for preparing a dual media safety heat exchanger.

A heat exchanger system includes a rigid framework a rigid framework. A first heat exchanger may be coupled to a first support structure on a top of the rigid framework. A second heat exchanger may be positioned below the first heat exchanger. The second heat exchanger may be coupled to a second support structure. The second support structure may hang from the rigid framework via a first set of tethers. The first set of tethers may be configured to vertically and horizontally move the second support structure. The vertically and horizontally movement of the second support structure may be based on a thermal expansion of the second heat exchanger.

In a tank structure of a heat exchanger having a narrow width header plate, to reduce thermal stress generated in a tube on the outermost side of the header plate in a lengthwise direction. Insertion holes, except for end-portion tube insertion holes at least located at end portions of a header plate in the lengthwise direction, are linked with deformation prevention beads formed along the lengthwise direction of the header plate, and the end-portion tube insertion holes are not linked with the deformation prevention beads.

The present discloses a gas-gas high-temperature heat exchanger, including a shell (12), a tube sheet (5), a low-temperature gas inlet pipeline (6) and an outlet pipeline (7), and a high temperature gas outlet (8), the tube is divided into a first heat transfer zone (1) and a second heat transfer zone (2), a low temperature gas (4) flows in the tube, the tube includes a insert component (9) and an outer fin (10); a heat transfer tube in the second heat transfer zone (2) has a sleeve structure, a high-temperature gas (3) flows in the core tube (13), the low temperature gas (4) flows in an annular region between the core tube (13) and an outer tube (14), the high-temperature gas (3) flows out of the core tube (13) and flows into the shell-side area of the second heat transfer zone (2) again.

An air-conditioning unit is provided, comprising: an input vent for receiving return air; an intermediate vent; an output vent; a blower fan proximate to the input vent for moving the return air from the input vent to the intermediate vent; and an air-conditioner coil between the intermediate vent and the output vent including an active portion including one or more operational air-conditioning coils that receive a first portion of the return air from the intermediate vent, for circulating a coolant, condition the first portion of the return air by heat exchange with the coolant to create conditioned air, and pass the conditioned air to the output vent, and an inactive portion that does not circulate coolant and passes a second portion of the return air as unconditioned air to the output vent, wherein the conditioned air and the unconditioned air pass through the output vent as supply air.

A heat exchanger includes: tubes stacked in a stacking direction, through which fluid flows; and a tank having a core plate to which each of the tubes is connected. The tank has a first space and a second space separated from each other and arranged in the stacking direction to store fluid. The core plate has insertion holes arranged in the stacking direction, through which the tubes are respectively inserted. The core plate has a boundary portion opposing a boundary between the first space and the second space. The core plate has a rigid portion that overlaps at least one of the insertion holes at a position adjacent to the boundary portion so as to increase a rigidity of the core plate.

A heat exchanger includes first and second plates joined together with portions of the inner surfaces spaced apart to define a plurality of fluid flow passages for flow of a heat transfer fluid. A dividing rib separates the heat exchanger into an inlet section and an outlet section, each of which includes a plurality of fluid flow passages. Inlet and outlet ports are located near a first end of the heat exchanger, on opposite sides of the dividing rib. The heat transfer surface area of the inlet section is less than that of the outlet section due to the presence of one or more flow obstructions between the inlet port and first ends of the fluid flow passages in the inlet section. Each flow obstruction may be a dead channel including a continuous outer rib completely surrounding a depressed middle region.
