Zusammenfassung: | A heat exchanger (12) includes a first header (20) including a fluid inlet (28), a second header (22) positioned downstream of the first header with respect to a first internal fluid flow path (F1) of a first fluid and including a fluid outlet (30), and a core (24) extending from the first header to the second header. The core includes a plurality of flow-modifying core tubes (32) that are shaped, angled, and/or arranged to modify flow through the heat exchanger along a second external fluid flow path. The plurality of flow-modifying core tubes includes airfoil tubes (112) with corresponding airfoil cross-sections. |
