Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2010005676A2] A heat exchanger includes heat exchange tubes, a manifold, and a distribution insert incorporating orifices that communicate a fluid into the manifold for distribution into the heat exchange tubes. A design characteristic of the distribution insert and another design characteristic of at least one of the distribution insert, the manifold and the heat exchange tubes are employed to determine an essential design relationship. The essential design relationship defines a design parameter, the value of which falls within a determined range of values.
