Abstract (en)

A heat exchanger (100) comprises a first manifold (102), a second manifold (104), and a plurality of tubes (106) extending between the first and second manifolds (102, 104). The first manifold (102) comprises a tank member (108) comprising a first and second channel (110A, 110B), and a header plate (112) comprising a first set of slots (114A) in conjunction with the first channel (110A) defining an inlet manifold (122), and a second set of slots (114B) in conjunction with the second channel (110B) defining an outlet manifold (124). The first manifold (102) extends beyond an outline of the tubes (106) and comprises at least two aperture (116A, 116B) in fluid communication with the inlet and outlet manifolds (122, 124), respectively. A first and second conduits (118, 120) are directly fixed to the first and second apertures (116A, 116B), respectively, for introduction of heat exchange fluid into the heat exchanger (100).
