An apparatus includes an integrated heat exchanger and reactor module. The integrated heat exchanger and reactor module includes a heat exchanger channel, and a reactor channel which is thermally coupled to the heat exchanger channel. The reactor channel includes a layer of catalyst material that is configured to produce hydrogen by endothermic catalytic decomposition of ammonia, which flows through the reactor channel, using thermal energy that is absorbed by the reactor channel from the heat exchanger channel.

A heat accumulating unit includes an upstream heat accumulator and a downstream heat accumulator each accommodating a supercooling heat accumulating material. Each of the upstream heat accumulator and the downstream heat accumulator has a channel in which fluid flows. In heat accumulation of the supercooling heat accumulating material, the channel of the upstream heat accumulator and the channel of the downstream heat accumulator are set in a serial connection state by a serial connection pipe. In a temperature rise mode, fluid that has passed through the channel of the upstream heat accumulator flows in a bypass pipe.

A heat exchanger for battery cooling is provided to improve an efficiency of cooling of the current heat exchangers. The heat exchanger for battery cooling comprises an upper housing with a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet, a lower housing capable of hermetically connecting with the upper housing to form a chamber for accommodating fluid. The fluid flows into the chamber through the fluid inlet and then exits through the fluid outlet. The fluid chamber is provided with at least one S-shaped fluid directing element with several through holes. With the S-shape directing elements within the fluid chamber and the through holes formed on the directing elements, fluid can flow in an injecting manner within the chamber to realize effective cooling of the upper housing.

A heat exchange module having a first heat exchanger, configured to enable heat exchange between a first fluid and a flow of air and extending inside a first plane of overall extension, and a second heat exchanger, configured to enable heat exchange between a second fluid and the flow of air and extending inside a second plane of overall extension, is disclosed. A housing delimiting, with the first heat exchanger, a circulation channel for the flow of air is included. The module has at least one air distribution member, movable between a position in which the air distribution member allows the flow of air to pass through the first heat exchanger and the second heat exchanger, and a position in which the air distribution member prevents the flow of air from passing through the first heat exchanger while allowing the flow of air to pass through the second heat exchanger.

A heat exchanger assembly (100) includes a first heat exchanger (10) that includes at least one first manifold (14), a second heat exchanger (20) that includes at least one second manifold (24) and at least one connector (30) formed on at least one of the first manifold (14) and the second manifold (24). The at least one connector (30) facilitates connection between the second heat exchanger (20) and the first heat exchanger (10). The at least one connector (30) includes a fluid flow passage (32) that forms fluid communication between heat exchange fluid flow lines (40) and the at least one second manifold (24). The fluid flow passage (32) is fluidically isolated from the at least one first manifold (14).

A thermal management system for an electric component has a housing for the electric component and a heat exchange plate extending over the surface of the lateral face of the housing. The plate has a fluid channel between a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet, a supply duct to supply the plate with fluid and a discharge duct, a casing defining the housing(s) and receiving the heat exchange plate and the supply and discharge ducts. The system includes a fluid collecting box arranged to collect fluid from a possible fluid leakage at the junction between the fluid inlet and the fluid outlet of the plate and the associated supply and discharge ducts, so as to prevent said leaked fluid from dripping into a bottom of the casing.

The invention relates to a heat exchanger unit for an exhaust gas system. The heat exchanger unit comprises an inlet for a fluid flow to enter the heat exchanger unit and an outlet for a fluid flow to exit the heat exchanger unit. The heat exchanger unit comprises a heat exchanger having a heat exchanger conduit passing through the heat exchanger and at least one bypass conduit bypassing the heat exchanger, wherein the at least one bypass conduit comprises a bypass core having a plurality of channels arranged longitudinally along the bypass conduit.

The invention relates to a battery housing (1) for a vehicle driven by an electric motor, which is to be installed in the floor region of a vehicle, having a frame (2), which encloses at least one battery module, and a floor (3), which is connected to the frame (2), The floor (3) takes the form of a sandwich construction and forms hollow chambers (18, 18′), which can be used as temperature-control channels for guiding through a fluid by virtue of end-side openings in adjacent hollow chambers (18, 18′) being connected to one another at their two ends.
