COUNTER-FLOW HEAT EXCHANGER WITH HELICAL PASSAGES
A counter-flow heat exchanger (10) is provided that includes: a first fluid path (100) having a first supply tube (104) connected to a first transition area (106) separating the first fluid path (100) into a first array (108) of first passageways (110), with the first array (108) of first passageway...

Zusammenfassung: | A counter-flow heat exchanger (10) is provided that includes: a first fluid path (100) having a first supply tube (104) connected to a first transition area (106) separating the first fluid path (100) into a first array (108) of first passageways (110), with the first array (108) of first passageways (110) merging at a first converging area (112) into a first discharge tube (114); and a second fluid path (200) having a second supply tube (204) connected to a second transition area (206) separating the second fluid path (200) into a second array (208) of second passageways (210), with the second array (208) of second passageways (210) merge at a second converging area (212) into a second discharge tube (214). The first passageways (110) and the second passageways (210) have a substantially helical path around the centerline (12) of the counter-flow heat exchanger (10). Additionally, the first array (108) and the second array (208) are arranged together such that each first passageway (110) is adjacent to at least one second passageway (210). |
