20120186282 | RECIRCULATION HEAT EXCHANGER OUTLET HEADER - An air cooling system includes a heat exchanger, an inlet duct, an outlet duct, and an outlet header. The inlet duct is fluidly connected to the heat exchanger and is configured to direct relatively warm air from the cabin into the heat exchanger. The outlet duct is fluidly connected to the heat exchanger and configured to direct relatively cool air out of the heat exchanger and back to the cabin. The outlet header is located between the heat exchanger and the outlet duct. The outlet header has a shape configured to collect water from the cool air. | 07-26-2012 |
20120255715 | LIQUID-TO-AIR HEAT EXCHANGER - A liquid-to-air heat exchanger includes an air inlet header, an air outlet header and a core. The air inlet header has an air inlet connection and the air outlet header has an air outlet connection. The core is connected to the air inlet header and the air outlet header and is angled relative to the air inlet connection and the air outlet connection. More particularly, the air inlet connection and air outlet connection do not align in a straight flow path and the core is disposed at an acute angle relative to one of the air inlet connection and the air outlet connection and an obtuse angle relative to the other of the air inlet connection and the air outlet connection. | 10-11-2012 |
20130068421 | PROTECTIVE LEAKAGE SHIELD FOR LIQUID TO AIR HEAT EXCHANGER - A leakage shield for an air to liquid heat exchanger includes a drain pan, a liquid header panel, and a closure bar. The drain pan has a first side and a second side opposite the first side. The liquid header panel has a lower end attached to the first side of the drain pan, and extends vertically upwards from the first side of the drain pan. The closure bar panel has a lower end attached to the second side of the drain pan, and extends vertically upwards from the second side of the drain pan. | 03-21-2013 |
20140231059 | HEAT EXCHANGER - A heat exchanger assembly for an inert gas system includes a ram air inlet flange, a ram air outlet flange, and a core coupled to the ram air inlet flange and the ram air outlet flange. The core includes a fin assembly having a plurality of hot layers and ram air layers. The hot layers have an effective hot flow length, the ram air layers have an effective cold flow length, and the fin assembly has a no flow length. A ratio of the effective hot flow length to the effective cold flow length is between 9.23 and 10.32. A ratio of the no flow length to the cold flow length is between 21.86 and 25.23. | 08-21-2014 |
