  • Publication number: 20110132586
    Abstract: A heat exchanger includes a tube bundle including a plurality of heat exchanger tubes, each of the heat exchanger tubes having an inlet, an outlet, an outer surface, and a generally U-shaped bend region disposed between at least two straight tube ends, wherein at least a portion of the at least two straight tube ends includes flat tubes, a jacket part disposed around the tube bundle to enclose at least a portion of the tube bundle, wherein an interior is formed between the tube bundle and the jacket part to receive a coolant around the outer surface of each of the heat exchanger tubes, and a casing cover coupled to the jacket part to form a fluid tight seal therebetween, wherein the inlet and the outlet of each of the heat exchanger tubes fluid-tightly passes through the casing cover and extends outside of the casing cover.
