Zusammenfassung:A charge air cooler may include inlet and outlet chambers adjacent one another and separated by a baffle defining a bypass passage for airflow therethrough. The charge air cooler may also include heat exchange conduits connected between the inlet and outlet chambers. A valve may be disposed in the bypass passage and configured to selectively redirect at least a portion of the airflow through the bypass passage responsive to a charge air cooler outlet temperature being below a condensation temperature of the airflow.
