HEAT EXCHANGER FOR GAS, PARTICULARLY FOR ENGINE EXHAUST GASES

摘要

A heat exchanger uses engine exhaust gases. The heat exchanger comprises a plurality of parallel tubes arranged inside a header and through which the gases to be cooled by exchange of heat with a coolant flow, and fins that disturb the flow of the gas and that are arranged inside each tube. The tubes and the header comprise a plurality of protrusions and respectively, the distribution pattern and dimensions of which are defined according to the dimensions of the tubes and of the header and which are able to guarantee suitable distribution of the compression between the header, the tubes and the fins relative to one another while the heat exchanger is being assembled and brazed in the furnace.
