Heat exchanger and method for manufacturing such a heat exchanger
This heat exchanger includes fluid circulation channels extending lengthwise along a first axis, and layers that are flat and superposed on one another along a second axis. To improve performance, each layer is made up of metal strips so the strips a layer all extend lengthwise perpendicular to the second axis and adjacent one another, without necessarily touching. Each channel is jointly defined by first through third layers, the second being intercalated, along the second axis, directly between the first and third layers so each channel is delimited by a face of the first and third layers and edges of the second layer running parallel to the first axis and transversely to the second layer, these edges being formed by strips of this second layer fusion-welded to the first and third layers in zones extending along the length of the channel and situated on either side of the channel.
Condensation heat exchanger having dummy pipe
A condensation heat exchanger having dummy pipes is provided in which a plurality of condensation heat exchange pipes are connected with water housings so as to recover latent heat while the water is circulating, and, by having the dummy pipes, penetrating the water housings, arranged in between the condensation heat exchange pipes, the pressure applied to the water housings is distributed and smooth flow of water is facilitated.
Work machine heat exchanger
A work machine heat exchanger is provided. The work machine heat exchanger includes an upstream tank having an inlet and a downstream tank having an outlet. The work machine heat exchanger also includes a first core and a second core, both coupled between the upstream and the downstream tank, and including a first inner side sheet and a second inner side sheet, respectively. The first and the second inner side sheet define an air gap between the first and the second core. A pair of supporting bars are stacked between the first and the second inner side sheet, and configured to retain the first and the second inner side sheet parallel to each other. A first supporting bar of the pair of supporting bars is attached to the upstream tank and a second supporting bar of the pair of supporting bars is attached to the downstream tank.
MOTOR VEHICLE HEAT EXCHANGER COMPRISING A HEADER TANK
The invention relates to a heat exchanger (1), in particular for a motor vehicle, comprising a header tank (9a) and a bundle of tubes, said header tank (9a) comprising a collector plate (21), a cover (23) and a seal located between the collector plate (21) and the cover (23), said header tank (9a) being divided into two compartments (15a and 15b) by a transverse partition (17), said compartments (15a and 15b) being configured to communicate respectively with two parts of the bundle, said seal isolating said compartments (15a and 15b) from one another and partially closing off the opening of at least one tube, said partially closed-off tube (51), opening into said header tank (9a) near said transverse partition (17).
Multi-flow heat exchanger for exchanging heat between cool fluid and hot fluid
The heat exchanger includes a cool conduit (2,3), a hot conduit (4) and a heat exchanging element (1) arranged between the cool conduit (2,3) and the hot conduit (4). The heat exchanger also includes at least one further conduit (3,2) arranged next to the cool conduit (2,3) or to the hot conduit (4) on a same side of the heat exchanging element (1) as said respective cool or hot conduit. The further conduit is separated from the respective cool or hot conduit by a separator (5) that includes two separating elements (51,52) arranged at a distance to each other and forming a cavity (53) between the two separating elements (51,52). The separator restricts a fluid flow into or in the cavity (53) such as to limit a heat exchange between the further conduit (3,2) and the respective cool or hot conduit on the same side of the heat exchanging element (1).
Support element, corresponding cryogenic fluid circuit and corresponding method
Support element and method for a cryogenic fluid circuit comprising a plurality of orifices intended for the passage of cryogenic-fluid transfer pipes, said support element comprising at least one thermal path formed between two adjacent orifices, the thermal path comprising a blind opening, the opening being delimited by two spaced-apart walls extending between two ends in a longitudinal direction perpendicular to the plane of the orifices, the two walls being joined together by an end wall, the support element being characterized in that it comprises a first set of orifices which is surrounded by a first thermal path and a second set of orifices, the first thermal path being situated between the first set of orifices and the second set of orifices, which means to say that the first thermal path is in thermal and mechanical connection with, on the one hand, all the orifices of the first set of orifices and, on the other hand, all the orifices of the second set of orifice.
HEAT EXCHANGER
A heat exchanger includes a core portion including a plurality of tubes, and header tanks located on opposite ends in the longitudinal direction of the plurality of tubes and communicate with the plurality of tubes. A first fluid flows through a first tank chamber and a first tube group of the plurality of tubes. A second fluid different in temperature range from the first fluid flows through a second tank chamber and a second tube group of the plurality of tubes connected to the second tank chamber. The heat exchanger includes a flow rate limiting portion. The flow rate limiting portion is configured to reduce a flow rate of the first fluid or the second fluid supplied to at least first one tube of the plurality of tubes from a boundary portion provided by the partition wall.
Heat Exchanger for an Internal Combustion Engine
A heat exchanger for an internal combustion engine for transmitting heat between at least two fluids includes at least one housing, which has at least one housing wall and a housing interior at least partially delimited by the housing wall, and a fluid inlet region for introducing a first fluid of the at least two fluids into the housing interior and a fluid outlet region for discharging the first fluid from the housing interior. The heat exchanger also has at least one fluid conduit device which is disposed in an interior sub-region of the housing interior and which has a fluid conduit device wall to separate the first fluid from a second fluid. The fluid conduit device wall delimits a plurality of fluid conduits for guiding the first fluid between the fluid inlet region and the fluid outlet region at least in part, at least parts of one of the fluid conduits having an undulating shape in the longitudinal extension direction of the fluid conduit device. The fluid conduit device has at least one support element which is disposed between a first fluid conduit wall, at least parts of which have the undulating shape and at least parts of which delimit a first outer fluid conduit of the plurality of fluid conduits, and the fluid conduit device wall and has a first support element region supported against the first fluid conduit wall. At least parts of the first support element region are complementary to the undulating shape, and the at least one support element is provided for sealing the first outer fluid conduit to prevent the first fluid from passing through it.
