The mixer insert has a longitudinal axis and comprises a first group (5) of web elements and a second group (6) of web elements. The first group (5) of web elements extends along a first common group plane (7) and the second group (6) of web elements extends along a second common group plane (8). At least a portion of the web elements (9, 10) is provided with channels (11, 12). The channels extend from a first end (13) of the web element (11) to a second end (14) of the web element (11). The cladding element (2) comprises a corresponding channel, which is in fluid connection with the first end (13) and the second end (14) of the web element whereby the transition from at least one of the first (13) and second ends (14) of the web element to the corresponding channel in the cladding element (2) is free from gaps.

Various methods and systems are provided for an exhaust gas recirculation cooler including a plurality of cooling tubes. In one example, an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) cooler includes a plurality of cooling tubes positioned within a housing of the EGR cooler, each cooling tube of the plurality of cooling tubes extending between and directly coupled to tube sheets of the EGR cooler at ends of each cooling tube, where at least one end of one or more cooling tubes of a first portion of the plurality of cooling tubes, inward of a tube sheet coupled to the at least one end, includes a compliant region, where the first portion is positioned proximate to an exhaust inlet of the EGR cooler.

A brazed heat exchanger includes plates that are stacked or nested to define flow channels for multiple media. Inserts are arranged within at least some of the flow channels. Two different braze alloys having compositions based on different metals are used to form braze joints between the plates and the inserts. In some cases, a copper-based braze alloy is used for joints corresponding to flow channels for one of the media in order to provide high pressure-resisting strength to those flow channels, while an iron-based braze alloy is used for joints corresponding to flow channels for another of the media where dissolved copper is undesirable.

A heat exchanger for cooling a component is coupled with a cowl at least partially surrounding the component. The cowl defines a cowl plenum and a peripheral gap for receiving the heat exchanger. The heat exchanger includes a housing defining a heat exchange plenum for receiving a cool fluid stream and a plurality of heat exchange tubes passing through the heat exchange plenum for receiving a hot fluid stream. A discharge manifold defines a discharge plenum that provides fluid communication between the heat exchange plenum and the cowl plenum through a fluid outlet. In addition, an impingement baffle at least partially defines the discharge manifold and defines a plurality of cooling holes for impinging cooling air on the component proximate the heat exchanger.

A system capable of providing a liquid purification process using heat regenerating or recovering via heat exchangers (“HEs”). The system, in one embodiment, includes a first set of thermal conductive channels (“TCC”), a second set of TCC, and a third set of TCC. The first set of TCC configured in a first HE is arranged in cylindrical shape which is able to surround or enclose a boiler. A function of TCC is to guide a liquid flow traveling through an HE. The second set of TCC configured in a second HE guides a second liquid flow traveling through the second HE. The third liquid flow such as a cold water stream, for example, flows through the third set of TCC adjacent to the first set of TCC and extracts heat from the first liquid flow such as hot purified water via TCC.

A heat exchanger includes a separator member that divides a first flow passage from a second flow passage. The heat exchanger also includes a plurality of first hollow members that extend across the first flow passage at respective non-orthogonal angles. The plurality of first hollow members are fluidly connected to the second flow passage. Moreover, the heat exchanger includes a plurality of second hollow members that extend across the second flow passage at respective non-orthogonal angles. The plurality of second hollow members are fluidly connected to the first flow passage.

A raw gas collection system for collecting raw gas from a plurality of aluminium smelting pots is equipped with a plurality of branch ducts, each of which is arranged to channel a respective branch flow of raw gas from an aluminium smelting pot to a collection duct, which is common to and shared by the branch ducts. Each of said branch ducts is, near an outlet thereof, equipped with a curved section for aligning the branch flow with a flow direction of raw gas already present in the common collection duct, and a constriction for accelerating the branch flow through the branch duct outlet into the common collection duct. Furthermore, each of said branch ducts is equipped with a heat exchanger for removing heat from the respective branch flow of raw gas. The combined flow resistance of the constriction and the heat exchanger reduces the need for adjusting the respective branch flows using dampers, thereby reducing the power required to transport the raw gas.

A tube-bundle heat exchanger includes built-in elements formed by deflection surfaces, windows and directing sections. The product flows in the outer chamber of a tube-bundle heat exchanger with an inlet and an outlet for the product and an inlet and an outlet for the heat carrier medium in the tubes. The deflection panels including the tube-bundle heat exchanger are modified such that they leave windows open and a directing section is attached on the inlet side and the outlet side of the deflection surface. These directing sections run parallel to the tube axes and cross one another. The flow is divided by the direction sections on the inlet side and directed to the windows in opposing directions, where it then exits on respective opposing sides of the outlet sections and is deflected.

A liquid to refrigerant heat exchanger includes a coolant volume that is at least partially defined by a plastic housing and by a metal closure plate. The plastic housing is sealingly joined to the closure plate along an outer periphery of the closure plate. The metal closure plate can be part of a brazed assembly that defines a continuous refrigerant flow path through the heat exchanger between a refrigerant inlet port and a refrigerant outlet port.

An embodiment of a heat exchanger assembly includes a first manifold adapted for receiving a first medium, a core adapted for receiving and placing a plurality of mediums, including the first medium, in at least one heat exchange relationship, and a core meeting the first manifold at a first core/manifold interface; The mounting structure supports a heat exchanger, and is metallurgically joined to at least one heat exchanger assembly component at a first joint integrally formed with the mounting structure.
