HEAT EXCHANGER HAVING AN END JUNCTION

In a heat exchanger with double-walled tubes, an end junction between inner tube and outer tube comprises an end plate in which there is a seat in which an end portion of the inner tube is housed. The corresponding outer tube is peripherally fixed sealingly around the opening of the seat and a deflector extends the inner wall of the outer tube inside the seat so as to define a toroidal cavity between the deflector and a side wall of the seat. The seat is closed by a bottom which is opposite to the opening of the seat and which has a passage connected sealingly to the end of the inner tube in the seat for the transit of the fluid to be cooled. A radial space is present near the said bottom between the toroidal cavity and internal cavity of the double-walled tube, and the end plate has at least one conduit which emerges inside the toroidal cavity for the inflow or outflow of the cooling fluid. In this way a junction and an exchanger with such a junction which are robust and have innovative performance features may be provided.
