An automotive type exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) cooler or heat exchanger that is constructed for integral mounting to the engine intake manifold, the cooler being flat and having an engine coolant inlet at one end of an oblong casing and a coolant outlet at the other end to flow coolant past a U-shaped tube containing EGR gases to be cooled.

Engine EGR cooler

An automotive type V-8 engine has an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system wholly contained within its intake manifold, and a flat, sandwich type EGR cooler is constructed to be integrally mounted to the underside of the manifold in the valley of the V-8 over the combination valley cover-manifold gasket, without the use of hoses, clamps and other paraphenalia normally associated with externally mounted EGR coolers.
