Abstract (en)

A vehicle heat exchanger (1), typically an oil cooler, has stacked galleries, including a first gallery system for containing a first fluid, and a second gallery system for containing a second fluid. The first and second gallery systems are sealed from one another and formed by a dimpled shell (2), a plain shell (4) nested within the dimpled shell element (2) and having a surface contacted by projecting dimples (15) of the dimpled shell (2)(to define a first gallery being); a turbulator (3) nested within the plain shell (4); and a further dimpled shell (2) nested in the plain shell (4), the further dimpled shell (a second gallery being defined between the further dimpled shell and the nesting plain shell, and occupied by the turbulator (4)). <IMAGE>
