Apparatuses and methods are disclosed including heat exchanger for an internal combustion engine. The heat exchanger can include a main body, a manifold and one or more outlet ports. The main body can have an inlet and an outlet to receive/pass a coolant on a first side thereof. The main body can have a fluid inlet and fluid outlet configured to receive a fluid. The main body can pass the fluid in a heat exchange relationship with the coolant. The manifold can be coupled to the main body on a second side. The manifold can be in fluid communication with a main coolant outlet passage to receive a portion of the coolant from the main body. The one or more outlet ports can be fluidly connected to the manifold and passing the portion of the coolant to one or more engine auxiliary systems.

A heat exchanging apparatus is adapted for differences in piping conditions at installation sites, reducing man-hours for manufacturing, management and installation for cost reduction. The heat exchanging apparatus includes a case open upward, a heat exchange unit housed in the case, and a storage tank arranged at an upper section of the case. A heat transfer medium inlet and a heat transfer medium outlet are open in the same direction at both ends of a heat transfer medium circulation pipe.
