A heat exchanger in which a connecting part may be coupled to a header tank of the heat exchanger in the short term without using a separate coupling component before a brazing process is performed, and a coupling method of a connecting part thereof. The connecting part is coupled to a first header tank or a second header tank while surrounding a predetermined region of an outer peripheral surface of the first header tank or the second header tank, a region of the connecting part to which external force is locally applied being coupled to the first header tank or the second header tank while protruding together with the first header tank or the second header tank.

A heat exchange device includes a core and a housing. The core includes a first collecting part and a second collecting part, and a flat tube part is provided between the two. The flat tube part includes a first flat tube group and a second flat tube group. The first collecting part includes first and second collecting portions, and a separator is formed between the two. Each flat tube of the first flat tube group is communicated with the collecting cavity of the first collecting portion. The collecting cavity of the first collecting portion is communicated with the collecting cavity of the second collecting portion through the first flat tube group, the collecting cavity of the second collecting part, and the second flat tube group.

A heat exchanger includes: a case which has a first side wall that stands upright in a vertical height direction and to which a heating medium is supplied inside; and heat transfer tubes for heating hot water housed in the case. Two end portions of the heat transfer tubes in a longitudinal direction are joined to the first side wall via brazing portions, and the heat transfer tubes are supported by the first side wall. The heat exchanger further includes heat transfer tube support portions provided on the first side wall for supporting portions of the heat transfer tubes near the first side wall to prevent the portions of the heat transfer tubes near the first side wall from descending below a first predetermined height.

A heat exchange system includes a shell having an interior with an inlet and an outlet wherein a first fluid circuit is defined from the inlet, through a heat exchange volume within the interior of the shell, to the outlet. A tubesheet is mounted within the shell dividing between the heat exchange volume and a plenum of a second fluid circuit within the interior of the shell. A set of tubes extends through the heat exchange volume, a respective interior passage of each tube being in fluid communication with the plenum through a respective opening though the tubesheet. The second fluid circuit includes the plenum and interior passages of the tubes. A spray nozzle is mounted in the plenum of the second fluid circuit with a spray outlet directed toward the tubesheet for cleaning the tubesheet with a submerged impingement jet issued from the spray nozzle.

An apparatus for supplying and dissipating heat, for carrying out reactions and for mixing and dispersing flowing media in a housing with an internal diameter for a medium and comprising internal fittings made up of a bundle of tubes with an external diameter or made up of other elongate elements oriented parallel to the longitudinal axis of the housing is provided. The apparatus includes crosspieces or crosspiece layers installed crosswise between the elongate elements. The crosspieces are inclined in relation to the longitudinal axis of the housing and are not in contact. After axially successive crosspieces, or a length, the crosspieces are installed between the tubes and turned by preferably 90°. A heat-transfer medium can flow in a co-current or counter-current mode. This results in a mixer/heat exchanger or reactor with an extremely large heat-transfer capacity and almost plug flow.
