Low head loss systems are detailed. The systems may include chambers having low impedance to water flow therethrough and repositionable gates or other valves within the chambers. The valves may direct water as a function of whether an associated heating device is active. At least some gates may incorporate poppet valves or other high-flow by-passes.

A thermal control system includes an enclosure configured to contain a thermal mass. A baffle plate is disposed in the enclosure. A heat exchanger is coextensive with and cooperates with the baffle plate to divide the enclosure into a first chamber and a second chamber. An air circulation element cooperates with the baffle plate and the heat exchanger to define an air circulation path and to cause air to flow through the air circulation path. The heat exchanger exchanges thermal energy with the air flowing through the air circulation path.

The present disclosure provides an EGR cooler for a vehicle. The EGR cooler includes: a gas passage having a predetermined length, the gas passage including a linear part forming a linear section and extension parts extending from opposite ends of the linear part after being bent; a heat radiation fin having a shape formed by being folded several times, the heat radiation fin being placed in the linear section of the gas passage; and a base provided with an inlet hole at a first end and an outlet hole at a second end. In particular, the inlet hole and the outlet hole each has a shape corresponding to a cross-section of the gas passage, and the extension parts are inserted into the inlet hole and the outlet hole, respectively.

A heat exchanger is configured such that flat tubes in at least two levels bent or connected to each other at one end in an axial direction of the flat tubes and the flat tubes in at least two columns connected to each other are included in refrigerant passages through which refrigerant flows, and a flow direction of gas is counter to flow of refrigerant through the refrigerant passages in a column direction while the heat exchanger serves as a condenser.

A radiator includes a tube that has a flattened-shape, the tube including an internal flow channel that allows a coolant to flow through the internal flow channel; and a tank that includes an insertion port into which a joint end portion of the tube is inserted so that the tank and the tube are joined to each other, wherein the tube includes an outer-peripheral-wall extending in a direction perpendicular to a thickness direction of the tube, and bend depressions that are bent toward the internal flow channel in a concave shape are formed in at least a region of the outer-peripheral-wall adjacent to the joint end portion, the bend depressions extending along the internal flow channel, and the bend depressions are deformed in a width direction of the tube so that the width of the joint end portion is the same as the width of the insertion port.

The embodiments described herein are directed to a coil support and a method of using the coil support for condensate management. The coil support generally functions to provide support for evaporator and/or condenser coils and facilitate the drainage of condensate away from coil headers.

A heat exchanger is provided including a first manifold and a second manifold separated from the first manifold. A plurality of heat exchange tube segments are arranged in spaced parallel relationship and fluidly couple the first and second manifold. Each of the plurality of tube segments includes a first heat exchange tube and a second heat exchange tube at least partially connected by a web extending there between. The plurality of heat exchange tube segments includes a bend defining a first section and a second section of the heat exchange tube segments. The first section is arranged at an angle to the second section. A plurality of first fins extends form the first section of the heat exchange tube segments and a plurality of second fins extends from the second section of the heat exchange tube segments.

A heat exchanger includes a main heat exchange unit including a plurality of first heat transfer pipes arranged side by side, a sub-heat exchange unit including a plurality of second heat transfer pipes arranged side by side, and a relay unit including a plurality of relay passages connecting the plurality of first heat transfer pipes and the plurality of second heat transfer pipes. Each of the plurality of relay passages has one inlet connected to a corresponding one of the plurality of second heat transfer pipes, and a plurality of outlets each connected to a corresponding one of the plurality of first heat transfer pipes. Each of the plurality of relay passages distributes refrigerant flowing from the one inlet, without merging streams of the refrigerant together, and causes the refrigerant to flow out of the plurality of outlets.

A microchannel evaporator includes a plurality of microchannels. Each of the plurality of microchannels includes a first end and a second end. A first end-tank is coupled to each first end of the plurality of microchannels and a second end-tank is coupled to each second end of the plurality of microchannels. A second-fluid inlet is coupled to either the first end-tank or the second end-tank and configured to receive a fluid into the microchannel evaporator and a second-fluid outlet is coupled to either the first end-tank or the second end-tank and configured to expel the fluid from the microchannel evaporator. Each microchannel of the plurality of microchannels includes at least one bend along a length thereof.

A heat exchanger assembly for a gas turbine engine including a frame, including a non-planar outer wall, a non-planar inner wall spaced radially inward from the non-planar outer wall to form a frame cavity therebetween, an inlet side extending between the non-planar outer wall and the non-planar inner wall, an inlet passage extending through the inlet side, an outlet side extending between the non-planar outer wall and the non-planar inner wall opposite the inlet side; an outlet passage extending through the outlet side, and a continuous non-planar core disposed within the frame cavity and in flow communication with the inlet passage and the outlet passage.
