    Abstract: A fluid flow diverter is provided in a standard rectangular header of a keel cooler for optimizing the coolant flow towards both the interior tubes and also towards the exterior tubes of the keel cooler. The improvement enhances the internal coolant flow and subsequent heat transfer efficiency similar to what has been realized with a non-rectangular header, for example, a header with a beveled wall.
