摘要 |
The invention provides, among other things, a heat exchanger including a header (18), a number of tubes (11) extending outwardly from the header, and an elastic sleeve (15) supported between the header (18) and one of the tubes (11) to allow movement of the tube (11) relative to the header in a direction substantially parallel to a length of the tube defined between a first end of the tube adjacent to the header and a second end of the tube spaced away from the header. Together, the tube, the header, and the elastic sleeve can at least partially define a flow path for a working fluid. |
