A heat exchanger assembly includes first and second tanks having tube side walls, reservoirs formed therein, and apertures extending through the tube side walls. A flow tube having a plurality of fins on an exterior surface thereof, a first end, and a second end, the first end being received in an aperture of the first tank. A first seal is positioned between the flow tube and the first aperture. A retainer is positioned between the flow tube and the first aperture and between the first seal and the fins on the tube. A mounting block is positioned between the first tank and the fins on the tube, and is secured to the first tank. A second seal is positioned between the flow tube and the second aperture.

There is disclosed a heat exchanger extending along a longitudinal axis, including a first conduit configured for circulating a first fluid; a second conduit configured for circulating a second fluid; and a heat transferring layer disposed between the first conduit and the second conduit. The heat transferring layer is monolithic with the second conduit. An abutting side of the heat transferring layer is in contact with the first conduit to define a surface contact interface therebetween. The abutting side is shaped to correspond to a shape of a surface of the first conduit in contact with the heat transferring layer. A thermal resistance defined between the second conduit and the heat transferring layer being less than that across the surface contact interface. The first conduit is in heat exchange relationship with the second conduit via the heat transferring layer.

A heat pump, heat pump exchanger component, and method of using a heat exchanger, the heat pump exchanger has long pipes arranged in at least one layer in fluid communication with one another, and spaced a minimum of about two (2) feet apart. Shorter pipes may be disposed between long pipes, and connectors between adjacent pipes. The long pipes are composed of high thermal conductive materials, such as aluminum, while the short pipes and/or connectors may be composed of flexible lower thermal conductive materials. Heat exchanger is placed a minimum of twenty-four (24) inches beneath the ground surface.

The present invention is a device for recovering energy from exhaust gas heat of an internal combustion engine. Particularly, the invention relates to a recuperator device which makes use of a temperature gradient between two conduits to generate an electric potential by means of a plurality of thermoelectric boards.

Provided is an integrated heat exchanger including a header tank in which a gasket is interposed between the header and the tank to seal a portion that the header and the tank are coupled to each other, wherein an inner space of the header tank is partitioned such that a first space portion formed between regions in which the heat exchange medium flows is formed to be in communication with an external region of the header tank through a heat exchange medium discharging means formed at a portion that the header and the tank are coupled to each other, thereby preventing the heat exchange mediums from being leaked between two heat exchange portions and to detect a leakage of the heat exchange medium even when the leakage of the heat exchange medium occurs.

The heat exchanger has tubes and a header tank that is located at an end of the tubes in a longitudinal direction and communicates with the tubes. The header tank has a core plate that connects to the tubes and a tank body that is fixed to the core plate. The core plate has a tube connection surface, a sealing surface, and an inclined surface that connects the tube connection surface and the sealing surface with each other. A distance between the tube connection surface and an end surface of the tubes in the longitudinal direction is different from a distance between the sealing surface and the end surface in the longitudinal direction by disposing the inclined surface to incline with respect to the longitudinal direction. The tubes connect to the tube connection surface and the inclined surface in a condition of being inserted to the tube connection surface and the inclined surface.

This disclosure provides flow components, methods of additive manufacture, and output manifolds for heat recovery steam generators incorporating flow components. A flow component may include an annular wall that defines a flow path for a fluid. The annular wall may have a normative region and a stress region. The annular wall in the stress region may include a continuous skin to form a portion of the interior wall surface and an additive manufactured mesh adjacent to the continuous skin to the interior of the annular wall. The annular wall in the normative region may have a cross-section with a different structure than the stress region.

A heat exchanger includes crimping plates fixed to an inlet and an outlet of a duct and having frame shapes corresponding to opening shapes of the inlet and the outlet. Each of the crimping plates includes a beam connecting two different positions on an inner periphery of the crimping plate. The beam has a rib.
