Heat exchanger assembly for an automobile, utilises a cross flow configuration between the fluid supply and sump assemblies via tubular plate type heat exchange fins

摘要

The heat exchanger assembly comprises of an upper supply conduit (24) and a lower return sump (22) These are connected using vertical conduits (18) that have internally a series of further conduits. The main conduits twist through 90 degrees from the supply to the sump assemblies. Located between the conduits are plate type heat exchange fins that receive a cooling air supply such that the fluid within the conduits is cooled.
