Abstract (en)

A heat exchanger (100) for a motor vehicle includes at least one first manifold (10a, 10b), a first set of tubes (20), at least one second manifold (40a, 40b) and a second set of tubes (50). The at least one first manifold (10a, 10b) is for circulation of a first fluid within the first set of tubes (20) to define at least a portion of a first fluid circuit. The at least one second manifold (40a, 40b) is for circulation of a second fluid within the second set of tubes (50) to define at least a portion of a second fluid circuit. At least one second tube (50) includes a plurality of micro-channels (52) formed by at least one of extrusion and folding is received inside the first tube (20). The annular space between the first and second tubes (20) and (50) defines fluid flow passage for the first fluid.
