Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed for generic process chain entity mapping. An example apparatus includes at least one memory, instructions in the apparatus, and processor circuitry to execute the instructions to receive process chain input data, the input data including a system path, identify a match between a path alias and the input data, wherein the path alias includes an alias for one or more system path format patterns, extract at least one of (1) metadata information or (2) command line parameter information from the match, and output transformed data based on the at least one of the extracted metadata information or command line parameter information, the transformed data output in a generalized format.

Abstract: The present invention relates to heat exchangers and heat exchanger assemblies, and, in particular, leak tight heat exchanger assemblies with coined or extruded corners. The present invention further provides for heat exchanger assemblies that improves leak tight features while maintaining or providing increased heat exchanger assembly structural integrity and durability. The present invention also provides for a method for making leak tight heat exchangers using various bonding processes.

Abstract: A manifold for a heat exchanger comprising a tank, a plurality of tubes arranged to receive fluid therein, a plurality of fins for interspacing the tubes, the fins extending along the length of the tubes to thereby define a core section, wherein the header section is formed with multi-point brazing interfaces for securing said header and said core section during a brazing process. One embodiment provides at least one doubled wall area in close proximity to the tube slot areas to form a structure of increased strength, permitting the material to be reduced in relative thickness. The manifold may be formed from flat sheet stock by extended side walls of the header portion joined by a separate cap to close a top portion of the manifold assembly for the purpose of collecting fluid to and from the tubes and said at least one inlet and outlet.

Abstract: A power take off assembly for a heat exchanger for a vehicle. The assembly includes a rectangular frame having passages all the vertical sides to marry with core tubes from the heat exchanger, a face plate with a hole to position the power take off sleeve, a back plate with a similar hole, and a sleeve to allow the power take off shaft to pass though the assembly when installed in a heat exchanger for an automobile/truck. The assembly is pieced together and tabs located on the perimeter of the frame lock the front and back plates into place, the sleeve is inserted in the holes, and the entire assembly is brazed in a one shot process.
