  • Patent number: 9958218
    Abstract: A heat exchanger (1) for a motor vehicle includes a plurality of tubes (2) arranged in a first and a second row (3A, 3B); a first and a second header tank (4, 5) inside which tanks (4, 5) the tubes (2) of each of the rows (3A, 3B) emerge; and a longitudinal dividing partition (16) arranged in the first header tank (4) to divide the first header tank (4) longitudinally into refrigerant inlet and outlet compartments (17, 18) into which the tubes (2) of the first row (3A) and of the second row (3B) emerge. The longitudinal dividing partition (16) includes a plurality of transverse dividing partitions (27) arranged in the second header tank (5) to divide the second header tank (5) transversely into a plurality of return compartments (28) into which at least one tube (2) of each of the rows (3A, 3B) emerges.

  • Publication number: 20130299150
    Abstract: A heat exchanger comprises: a plurality of tubes for the circulation of a coolant which are arranged as a core bundle of tubes having a width in a longitudinal direction, a depth in a transverse direction, and a height in a vertical direction; a first header and a second header into which the tubes of the core bundle open; and a first partition arranged respectively in the first and second headers. The first partition respectively divides the first header and the second header, at least partially, into a first compartment and a second compartment which are adjacent in the transverse direction. The heat exchanger further comprises at least one second partition dividing the first compartment and the second compartment of the first header into a first chamber, a fourth chamber, and at least one return compartment which is adjacent, in the longitudinal direction, to the first and fourth chambers.
