Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2013104885A1] A heat transfer unit (100) and a heat exchanger (200, 300) comprising a heat transfer unit (100) is disclosed, for transferring heat between a first medium and a second medium. The unit (100) comprises a reservoir (101) and a heat transfer fluid disposed within the reservoir (101) which is arranged to exchange heat with the first medium. The unit (100) further comprises a chamber (103) and a plurality of fluid transfer ducts (102) which extend between the reservoir (101) and the chamber (103) and which are arranged to communicate the heat transfer fluid between the reservoir (101) and the chamber (103). The unit (100) further comprises a flow duct (105) along which the second medium is arranged to pass, at least a portion of the flow duct (105) being arranged in thermal communication with an interior of the chamber (103), such that during use, the second medium is arranged to exchange heat with the heat transfer fluid.
