A heat exchanger is provided and includes parting sheets flat along a first axis and curved along a second axis perpendicular to the first axis, a fin sheet interposed between the parting sheets and corrugated along the first axis to form fins that are curved along the second axis and diffusion bonds formed along an entire length of a fin to diffusion bond the entire length of the fin to the parting sheets.

A cold plate includes: a metal plate on which a plurality of fins are disposed; and a resin cover which covers the plurality of fins. A roughened portion is disposed on a tip surface of at least one of the plurality of fins. The roughened portion and the resin cover are fused to each other.

According to one aspect of the present technology, there is provided a snowmobile having: a tunnel; a motor; at least one ski; and a drive track. At least a portion of the tunnel is formed by a heat exchanger assembly having: a front portion; a middle portion; a rear portion; a top part; and a bottom part. The bottom part defines at least one recess. The top and bottom parts define therebetween a passage formed in part by the at least one recess. A first portion of the passage is defined by the at least one recess extending longitudinally. The drive track has: a plurality of lugs; and a plurality of studs. Portions of the plurality of lugs being laterally aligned with the first portion of the passage being free of studs.

A heat exchanger such as a cold plate or ICE plate has an integrated electric heating element provided on an external heater support surface of the heat exchanger. The external heater support surface is directly opposite to an internal surface of the heat exchanger which at least partly defines one or both of the inlet manifold and the outlet manifold. A thermal management system for a vehicle having a plurality of rechargeable battery units includes a circulation loop for circulating a first volume of the heat transfer fluid, and a plurality of battery heat exchangers, including a first heat exchanger with an integrated electric heating element. A sub-loop of the circulation loop includes the internal fluid flow passage of the first heat exchanger, and is adapted for a second, smaller volume of the heat transfer fluid.

An evaporator suitable for a thermal dissipation module. The thermal dissipation module includes a tube or pipe and fluid. The evaporator includes a housing, a first heat dissipation structure and a second heat dissipation structure disposed in a sealed chamber of the housing. The chamber is configured to communicate with the pipe, and the fluid is configured to flow in the pipe and the chamber. The first heat dissipation structure and a second heat dissipation structure provide a plurality of fluid flow passages through which the fluid flows and evaporates. A manufacturing method of the evaporator is also disclosed.

A heat exchange assembly and a heat exchange device. The heat exchange assembly includes a heat exchanger and a fan; the heat exchanger and the fan are spaced apart, and the heat exchanger is located in an air intake direction or an air outgoing direction of the fan; the fan includes an air opening; a shortest distance H between the air opening of the fan facing the heat exchanger and the heat exchanger and a diameter D of an impeller of the fan should meet 2H/D>1.05. A problem in the prior art of increased air intake resistance caused by an improperly arranged distance between the heat exchanger and the fan is solved.

A heat exchanger is provided and includes parting sheets and a fin sheet interposed between the parting sheets and corrugated along a first axis to form fins. Each of the fins is segmented to define gaps, which are arranged along a second axis perpendicular to the first axis, and which cooperatively accommodate curvatures of the parting sheets and the fin sheet in a third axis perpendicular to the first and second axes.

A method of forming a fuel cell system heat exchanger includes flattening opposing ends of a corrugated heat exchange plate to form opposing flattened ends, and welding the flattened ends to structural components of the fuel cell system. The flattening may include using a hydraulic press or a bead roller.

A heat exchanger includes a first plate defining a first plurality of undulations that extend along a first axis and a second axis, and a second plate defining a second plurality of undulations. The second plate is spaced apart from and coupled to the first plate to define a first fluid flow passage. A first flow area of the first fluid flow passage is constant from a first inlet to a first outlet. The heat exchanger includes a third plate defining a third plurality of undulations. The third plate is spaced apart from and coupled to the second plate to define a second fluid flow passage. The second fluid flow passage is discrete from the first fluid flow passage. A second flow area of the second fluid flow passage is constant from a second inlet to a second outlet.
