Abstract (en)

A method for forming an internal, integral baffle for a tube and fin type heat exchanger is disclosed. The baffles are formed by plastically deforming a top wall (50) of the manifold against the bottom wall (52) of the manifold to form a depression (58). A slit (59) is formed in the depression, the slit (59) allowing a bonding agent to secure the top wall (50) to the bottom wall (52) to secure the baffle within the manifold. <IMAGE>
