Abstract (en)

[origin: US2006048923A1] The invention concerns an elementary heat exchanger comprising a single elongated active monobloc component ( 10 ), enclosed in a casing provided with coolant inlet and outlet. The casing consists of two half-shells ( 11 a-b), welded together ( 98 a-b, 114 a-b), fixed to the active component. The active component ( 10 ) comprises a fishbone cross-section ( 10 a-b), whereof the bones ( 12 a-b) are hollow, oblique, embossed and globally symmetrical. The active component is made from a blank made of resistant material (for example a polymer), in the form of biconvex stiff-walled bellows ( 33 - 35 - 37 - 39 ), comparable to those of an accordion whereof the peaks have been struck off ( 36 ), narrow bases ( 38 ) and a spacing ( 16 ) between said bases.
