A heater assembly includes a flow guide and a plurality of electrical resistance heating elements. The flow guide defines a continuous geometric helicoid disposed about a longitudinal axis of the heater assembly. The flow guide defines a predetermined pattern of perforations that extend in a longitudinal direction through a first longitudinal length of the geometric helicoid. The longitudinal direction is parallel to the longitudinal axis. The geometric helicoid has a first pitch at a first zone along the longitudinal axis and a second pitch at a second zone along the longitudinal axis. The second pitch is shorter than the first pitch. The electrical resistance heating elements extend through the perforations.

Methods and systems are provided for directing the flow of recirculated exhaust gas (EGR) delivered to an EGR cooler. In one example, a method includes flowing EGR through an EGR cooler positioned in an EGR passage, the EGR cooler comprising a bypass passage, a first cooler core flow path, and a second cooler core flow path, and adjusting a valve of the EGR cooler to selectively block flow of the EGR through the bypass passage, the first cooler core flow path, and the second cooler core flow path. In this way, fouling of the EGR cooler may be reduced.

A heat exchanger (1) for thermally coupling a first fluid to a second fluid so as to transfer heat and in a fluidically separate manner includes a securing assembly (8) of two cover parts (9) and at least one, preferably a plurality of guide parts (11), through which duct tubes (5) of the heat exchanger (1) pass. The duct tubes (5) extend inside a housing tube (2) along the longitudinal axis of the housing tube (2). The first fluid passes through the housing tube (2) outside of the duct tubes (5), and the second fluid passes through the duct tubes (5). The duct tubes (5) may have circular or flattened cross-sections.

A heat exchange module is provided for a turbine engine. The heat exchange module includes a duct and a plurality of heat exchangers. The duct includes a flowpath defined radially between a plurality of concentric duct walls. The flowpath extends along an axial centerline through the duct between a first duct end and a second duct end. The heat exchangers are located within the flowpath, and arranged circumferentially around the centerline.

A heat exchanger duct includes a wall having ends spaced along a central axis. An inlet manifold is positioned within a downstream portion of the duct at a radially outward location. An outlet manifold is positioned within an upstream portion of the duct at a radially outward location. At least one of the inlet and outlet manifolds extend at least 10 degrees around the circumference of the duct. A central manifold is disposed between the inlet and outlet manifolds, and radially inwardly of the inlet and outlet manifolds. Heat exchanger entrance elements extend radially inward from the inlet manifold to the central manifold, and heat exchanger exit elements extend radially outward from the central manifold to the outlet manifold. A gas turbine engine is also disclosed.

A liquid-cooled heat dissipation device is disclosed, comprising a main body, a centrifugal pump, an inlet pipe and an outlet pipe. The main body comprises liquid flow channels and liquid storage tanks. The liquid flow channels are circumferentially arranged and spaced apart. The liquid storage tanks are located on both sides of the main body, and the liquid storage tanks on the same side are connected by liquid flow channels. The centrifugal pump is installed in one of the liquid storage tanks. The inlet pipe and the outlet pipe are in spatial communication with the other two liquid storage tanks, respectively. The centrifugal pump guides a cooling liquid through the inlet pipe, main body and outlet pipe. The cooling liquid travel through the liquid storage tanks via the liquid flow channels and forms radial jet flows after being pumped by centrifugal pump.

This flat tube heat exchanger encompasses a closed housing, in which two tube sheets and a tube bundle, which is arranged between the tube sheets and which is supported by the tube sheets is arranged. The tube bundle comprises at least some flat tubes, which extend in longitudinal direction of the tube bundle. At their ends, the flat tubes are round and are flat in a central section. The ends of the flat tubes, which have a round cross section, can be circular or can encompass a different round shape.

A heat exchange device effectively collects heat in a device, in which high temperature occurs, such as a scrubber. The heat exchange device includes a first heat exchange unit having a reactor positioned on the center thereof and having a first passage, which is arranged to enclose the reactor and discharges a first gas generated in the reactor, and a second passage, which is arranged adjacent to the first passage and introduces a second gas introduced from the outside. A second heat exchange unit is installed to enclose the first heat exchange unit and having a third passage, which is connected to the first passage and receives the first gas from the first passage to discharge the first gas to the outside, and a fourth passage, which is arranged adjacent to the third passage and introduces the second gas introduced from the outside into the second passage.

A heater assembly includes a continuous series of perforated helical members and a plurality of heating elements. The perforated helical members cooperate to define a geometric helicoid disposed about a longitudinal axis of the heater assembly. Each perforated helical member defines opposed edges and a predetermined pattern of perforations. The perforations extend through each perforated helical member parallel to the longitudinal axis. The heating elements extend through the perforations.
