ANNULAR ARRANGEMENT OF HEAT EXCHANGERS

A heat exchanger having: front and aft ends (110, 120); heat exchanger cores (130) in an annular loop (140) that define circumferential gaps (150) between adjacent pairs of the cores, the cores, individually or as axially aligned sets, extend from the front to aft ends and have facing inlet sides (1...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A heat exchanger having: front and aft ends (110, 120); heat exchanger cores (130) in an annular loop (140) that define circumferential gaps (150) between adjacent pairs of the cores, the cores, individually or as axially aligned sets, extend from the front to aft ends and have facing inlet sides (190) and circumferentially facing outlet sides (200) configured such that the inlet sides and the outlet sides from the adjacent pairs of the cores face into the same circumferential gaps; and core guide vanes (220) disposed in the circumferential gaps, the core guide vanes have an aft portion (230) that extends from the front end to the aft end of the heat exchanger, wherein: at the front end the heat exchanger, the core guide vanes are closer to the outlet side of the cores; and at the aft end the heat exchanger, the core guide vanes are closer to the inlet sides of the cores.
