An air-cooled condenser system for steam condensing applications in a power plant Rankine cycle includes an air cooled condenser having a plurality of interconnected modular cooling cells. Each cell comprises a frame-supported fan, inlet steam headers, outlet condensate headers, and tube bundle assemblies having extending between the headers. The tube bundle assemblies may be arranged in a V-shaped tube structure. A plurality of deflection limiter beams are arranged coplanar with the tube bundles. Top ends of each deflection limiter beam are slideably inserted in an associated floating end cap affixed to an upper tubesheet which moves vertically relative to the beams via thermal expansion/contraction concomitantly with the tubes. The deflection limiter beams provides guided restraint system for expansion/contraction of the tube bundles which prevents out of plane tube bowing.

Methods and systems are provided for a cooling assembly for a vehicle. In one example, the cooling assembly may be a non-rectangular cooler positioned in a front end of the vehicle with an entry duct continuous with the non-rectangular cooler and arranged upstream of the non-rectangular cooler and an exit duct also continuous with the non-rectangular cooler and arranged downstream of the non-rectangular cooler.

A heat exchanger has: a first manifold assembly having a stack of plates; a second manifold assembly having a stack of plates; and a plurality of tubes extending from the first manifold assembly to the second manifold assembly. The plurality of tubes is a plurality groups of tubes. For each of the groups of the tubes: the tubes of the group have first ends mounted between plates of the first manifold assembly; and the tubes of the group have second ends mounted between plates of the second manifold assembly.

A heat exchanger is provided including a first manifold, a second manifold, and a plurality of heat exchange tube segments fluidly coupling the first and second manifold. The heat exchange tube segments include a bend defining a first slab and a second arranged at an angle to one another. Each of the heat exchange tube segments includes at least a first heat exchange tube and a second heat exchange tube at least partially connected by a web extending there between. The first heat exchange tube and the second heat exchange tube are asymmetrical such that a cross-sectional flow area of the first heat exchange tube is different than that of the second heat exchange tube. A fluid flows sequentially through the first heat exchange tubes of the first slab and the second slab, and then through the second heat exchange tubes of the second slab and first slab.

A modular heat exchanger includes: two finned heat sinks, each finned heat sink has multiple guiding plates and a mounting recess; a securing assembly for securing the two finned heat sinks; a heat conduction pipe mounted in the mounting recesses; multiple modular blocks linearly arranged, and each modular block has multiple inlet through holes and multiple outlet through holes; multiple water pipes, each water pipe has two ends mounted through the inlet through holes and the outlet through holes respectively; and multiple coolers mounted to an outer sidewall defined on at least one of the modular blocks. It is convenient to assemble, disassemble or expand the modular heat exchanger, so as to improve performance of the modular heat exchanger. When one of the coolers fails, it is able to reach and detach said failed cooler by disassembling some parts of the modular heat exchanger, which is convenient.

A heat exchanger is provided and includes coils, a header disposed at an end of the coils to distribute fluid into the coils, an evaporator tube fluidly communicative with an end of the header and a tube sheet disposed against a side of one of the coils which is nearest to the end of the header to catch condensate dripping off the evaporator tube and to drain the condensate away from the coils.

A heat exchanger having a first heat exchanger tube and a second heat exchanger tube is disclosed. The first heat exchanger tube can have a first leg, a second leg, and a bend section, and the bend section of the first heat exchanger tube can include three or more bends, each of the three or more bends having a corresponding bend angle that is less than or equal to approximately 90 degrees. The second heat exchanger tube can have a first leg, a second leg, and a bend section, and the bend section of the second heat exchanger tube can include three or more bends, each of the three or more bends having a corresponding bend angle that is less than or equal to approximately 90 degrees.

A heat exchanger assembly includes a first heat exchanger plate and a second heat exchanger plate each include an outer boundary edge. The heat exchanger assembly also includes a service plate configured to be coupled to the outer boundary edge of each of the first and second heat exchanger plates. The service plate includes multiple sections coupled together to form a single plate, wherein each section of the multiple sections is configured to be individually removed to provide access to a space between the first and second exchanger plates.

Disclosed is a heat exchanger to reduce height and manufacturing cost. A heat exchanger includes a first heat exchanger provided in the form of a plate; and a second heat exchanger provided in the form of a plate and arranged to be inclined to the first heat exchanger, wherein a corner of at least one of an end of the first heat exchanger and an end of the second heat exchanger is positioned to face a plane of the other of the end of the first heat exchanger and the end of the second heat exchanger.

Disclosed is a system for receiving condensate from a v-coil heat exchanger (v-coil), having: a receptor that has: a first channel having a first length defined between first opposing ends, the first channel configured to receive the v-coil, the first channel having a first bottom surface; a second channel disposed at an angle to the first channel and connecting with the first channel at a junction so that fluid flows downstream from the first channel into the second channel, the second channel having a second bottom surface that extends below the first bottom surface; and a heat shield connected to the first channel and extending below the first channel.
