A heat exchanger includes: a header that extends in a first direction; and a plurality of heat transfer tubes that extend in a second direction crossing the first direction, each of which has one end connected to the header, and that are arranged in the first direction at intervals. The header includes: a header body having a tubular shape, a first member through which the one end of each of the heat transfer tubes extends, and a second member positioned between the header body and the first member in the second direction. The second member includes: a base portion that extends in the first direction, and a plurality of protruding portions that extend from the base portion toward the first member in the second direction.

A tube sheet for a thermal transfer device can include a body having a plurality of apertures that traverse therethrough, where the plurality of apertures are configured to receive a plurality of tubes of the thermal transfer device. The tube sheet can also include an outer perimeter defining the body, where the outer perimeter has at least one first recess feature disposed therein. The at least one first recess feature can have a first shape and a first size, where the first shape is any shape aside from a semi-circle.

A tube bundle-type heat exchanger, to a tube base, and to a method for sealing same. Aspects of the invention relate to a tube base for a tube bundle-type heat exchanger. In particular, the tube base includes a stack of multiple tube base plates with at least one through-opening for receiving a respective tube of the tube bundle-type heat exchanger. The throughopening is sealed by at least one seal ring. Additional aspects relate to a tube bundle-type heat exchanger comprising such a tube base and to a method for sealing a tube bundle-type heat exchanger in particular in the region of the tube base.

A shell and tube heat exchanger includes a tube bundle for passage of a first medium from a first inlet to a first outlet. A second medium flows through a flow space which surrounds the tube bundle. The tube bundle includes first tubes communicating with the first inlet, and second tubes communicating with the first outlet and fluidly connected to the first tubes. The first tubes define an outer enveloping surface which is predominantly adjacent to an enveloping surface of the second tubes. A separating body between the first inlet and a tubesheet which separates the flow space from the first medium prevents the first medium from flowing against the tubesheet and includes inlet tubes which bridge a compensation space between the separating body and the tubesheet and which protrude into the first tubes to direct the first medium into the first tubes while bypassing the tubesheet.

Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to a climate management system that includes a heat exchanger having a first set of microchannel coils fluidly coupled to a first circuit of the climate management system and a second set of microchannel coils fluidly coupled to a second circuit of the climate management system, where the first circuit and the second circuit are fluidly separate from one another, and where the first set of microchannel coils and the second set of microchannel coils are disposed in an alternating arrangement along a length of the heat exchanger such that the first set of microchannel coils and the second set of microchannel coils are interlaced in the heat exchanger.

A machine system includes a compressor, and a cooler having an inlet tank to receive compressed air from the compressor, and a header assembly attached to the inlet tank and including a plurality of cooling tubes supported in the header and each having an external heat exchange surface exposed to a flow of cooling air. The cooler further includes a plurality of graphite pack seals each extending peripherally around one of the cooling tubes, and a clamping assembly clamping the pack seals against the header to squeeze the pack seals into sealing contact with the cooling tubes and the header.

A heat exchanger is provided. The heat exchanger provides a first plurality of tubes and a second plurality of flow passages which furcate near one of the first and second manifolds into two or more furcated flow passages and subsequently converge to exit the heat exchanger. The plurality of furcated flow passages are intertwined, reducing the distance between flow passages containing each fluid therebetween to improve thermal transfer. Further, the furcations create changes of direction of the fluid to re-establish new thermal boundary layers within the flow passages to further reduce resistance to thermal transfer.

A double-row bent heat exchanger is provided. The heat exchanger includes: a first header and a second header; flat tubes each divided into a first straight segment connected to the first header, a second straight segment connected to the second header and a twisted segment connected between the first straight segment and the second straight segment, along a length direction of the flat tube; and fins disposed between adjacent first straight segments and between adjacent second straight segments. The flat tube is bent at the twisted segment around a first bending axis (L) to provide a first bending portion. The first header and the second header are bent around at least one second bending axis (K) to provide at least one second bending portion.

A shell heat dissipating structure of a small form-factor transceiver includes a hollow shell and a heat dissipating structure. The hollow shell has a setting surface disposed on the outside; the setting surface is formed along an extending direction of the hollow shell. The heat dissipating structure has plural fins formed along the extending direction of the hollow shell and spaced on the setting surface; a plurality of channels is formed among the fins. Each of the fins is formed by plural projecting portions and recess portions disposed along the extending direction and alternated continuously such that the channels among the fins communicate with each other through the recess portions.

Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to a climate management system that includes a heat exchanger having a first set of microchannel coils fluidly coupled to a first circuit of the climate management system and a second set of microchannel coils fluidly coupled to a second circuit of the climate management system, where the first circuit and the second circuit are fluidly separate from one another, and where the first set of microchannel coils and the second set of microchannel coils are disposed in an alternating arrangement along a length of the heat exchanger such that the first set of microchannel coils and the second set of microchannel coils are interlaced in the heat exchanger.
