A heat exchanger for an integrated heating, ventilation, and air conditioning unit includes a core and a frame. The frame supports the core and includes a partition which defines a first compartment and a second compartment in the frame and seals a first portion of the core from a second portion of the core.

A method of forming a membrane panel configured to be secured within an energy exchange assembly may include forming an outer frame defining a central opening, and integrating a membrane sheet with the outer frame. The membrane sheet spans across the central opening, and is configured to transfer one or both of sensible energy or latent energy therethrough. The integrating operation may include injection-molding the outer frame to edge portions of the membrane sheet. Alternatively, the integrating operation may include laser-bonding, ultrasonically bonding, heat-sealing, or the like, the membrane sheet to the outer frame.

The invention is directed to an evaporator plate heat exchanger comprising a water supply (1) and a water discharge (2) and a stack (4) of injected moulded frames (5) and heat exchange sheets (6), wherein the stack has two ends (7, 8) and at least four sides (9, 10, 11,12). The stack (4) has alternating first (13) and second (14) spaces between the heat exchange sheets (6). The stack (4) comprises a first enclosed space (15) at one side of the stack (4) which is fluidly connected to the first spaces (13) and not fluidly connected to the second spaces (14). The first enclosed space (15) is fluidly connected to the water supply (1).

A tank portion defines a space therein and has an opening on one side. A foot portion is in a plate shape extending radially outward from a bottom end of the tank portion on the one side. A core plate covers the opening and has a base portion and a holder portion. The base portion is in an elongated rectangular plate shape having first and second long lateral sides and a short lateral side. The holder portion includes a first holder at the first long lateral side, a second holder at the second long lateral side, and a third holder at the short lateral side, each gripping the foot portion. All the first holder, the third holder, and the second holder are one piece continuously extending along the first long lateral side, the short lateral side, and the second long lateral side.

The present disclosure provides a heat exchanger for a vehicle. The heat exchanger includes a relay block and a base member. The relay block has a first passage and a second passage. The relay block includes a first connecting surface and a second connecting surface. The base member is formed of plastic. The first connecting surface is configured to be connected to a first connector that is in fluid communication with a first in-vehicle component. The second connecting surface is configured to be connected to a second connector that is in fluid communication with a second in-vehicle component. Heat medium flows into the first in-vehicle component through the first passage and the heat medium flows into the second in-vehicle component through the second passage. The relay block is integrally formed with the base member by molding.

The present invention discloses a tray, a tray assembly, a battery pack assembly and a vehicle. The tray includes: a bottom plate, where the bottom plate includes a plurality of sub-bottom plates, flow channels are provided in at least some sub-bottom plates of the plurality of sub-bottom plates, and a battery assembly is suitable for being mounted on a sub-bottom plate in which a flow channel is provided; and a frame, where the frame is disposed around the bottom plate. Based on the tray according to the present invention, a volume requirement on the cavity for holding the battery assembly may be reduced, the flow channels are arranged more concisely, and a water cooling mode and an air cooling mode may be compatible. Particularly, in the water cooling mode, even if a cooling liquid leaks, the cooling liquid may directly flow outward, the battery assembly is not short-circuited, and the battery assembly is used more safely. This may play a role of relatively well protecting the battery assembly.

Calibrated additive manufacturing processes can be used to manufacture constructs which can include or exclude heat exchangers incorporating fractal branched conformal cooling passages for use as molds, rocket engine components, and test articles. Described herein are the manufacture and use of conformal cooling of heat exchangers made by an additive manufacturing process.

A heat exchanger may include a heat exchanger block and a diffusor connected thereto. At least one connecting pin may be integrally molded to a surface of the heat exchanger block. At least one passage opening, through which the at least one connecting pin may engage when the heat exchanger is mounted, may be arranged on the diffusor. The at least one connecting pin may have a widened head via which the diffusor may be secured to the heat exchanger block.

A cooling module including: a radiator including: first and second header tanks disposed to face each other; and hook parts respectively disposed at upper and lower sides of the first header tank and a lower side of the second header tank; and a condenser including: third and fourth header tanks disposed to face each other; a flange connection part coupled to the third header tank; and a gas-liquid separator coupled to the fourth header tank, in which the condenser is coupled to the radiator as the flange connection part, the third header tank, and the gas-liquid separator are inserted into the plurality of the hook parts, respectively, in a direction from an upper side to a lower side thereof.
