Abstract: A waste water heat recovery system may include a waste water conduit, a plurality of heat exchanger modules, an inlet manifold, and an outlet manifold. The plurality of heat exchanger modules may be disposed on an outer surface of the waste water conduit. Each of the plurality of heat exchanger modules may include a first conduction member, a second conduction member, and a serpentine potable water conduit seated between the first and second conduction members. The inlet manifold may receive potable water from a water source and may be fluidly connected to an inlet of the potable water conduit of each of the plurality of heat exchanger modules. The outlet manifold may be fluidly connected to an outlet of the potable water conduit of each of the plurality of heat exchanger modules.

Abstract: An internally reinforced hydroformed assembly and method of making same includes a hydroformed tubular member and a reinforcement disposed within the hydroformed tubular member prior to hydroforming. The internally reinforced hydroformed assembly and method of making same also includes at least one weld to secure the reinforcement to an interior surface of the hydroformed tubular member.
