Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A high gravimetric and volumetric power density heat exchanger is provided for high-temperature and high-pressure applications with counter-flowing hot and cold agents that enter via respective inlet headers, transit parallel and adjacent flow passages, and exit via respective outlet headers. One or more headers for conveying one of the substances may be situated within the flow of the other substance. Structures within the flow passages promote the transfer of heat while limiting pressure drop on one or both sides. The structures may include microscale pins, an array of pins (with specified aspect ratios and spacing), a lattice of interconnected pins, parallel ridges, and/or other features. Through an additive manufacturing process, the headers are monolithically integrated into the heat exchanger instead of being separately constructed and attached.
