HEAT EXCHANGER

The present invention discloses a heat exchanger (100) comprising a first manifold (102), a second manifold (108) and a plurality of heat exchange tubes (114) providing a fluidal communication between the first and second manifold (102, 108). Each of the tubes (114) comprises an interior surface (118) defined by a sidewall (120), a first end (116A) and a second end (116B) opposite to the first end (116A). Each of the manifolds (102, 108) comprises a tank member (106, 112) and a header plate (104, 110) comprising a plurality of apertures (144) to receive the respective end (116A, 116B) of the tubes (114). At least one intermediate plate (122) is arranged at least at one end (114A, 114B) of the tubes (114). The intermediate plate (122) comprises a plurality of orifices (128) aligning with the arrangement of the tubes (114) and the apertures (144) of the header plate (104, 110).
