Abstract:
A heat exchanger can have a manifold which includes a plurality of laminated sheets that allow a customization of the heat exchanger. The design can allow for a more optimal flow of coolant to areas of high load, thereby making the temperature distribution across the heat exchanger more uniform, or intentionally non-uniform. Furthermore, the laminated sheets can allow multiple circuits to be employed in the heat exchanger such that different coolants can be utilized therein and maintained separate from one another. The tubes can be microchannel tubes. A single set of manifolds can be used with multiple heat exchanger cores to provide a more compact heat exchanger. Mounting features can be integral with a group of the sheets.
