Abstract
A Non-Isotropic Structure for a Heat Exchanger (NISHEX) that forms fins from nested woven wire meshes. The wire meshes are shaped into channels that are stacked on top of each other to produce a non-isotropic fin structure having multiple fin layers. The fin structure exhibits a high heat coefficient while maintaining relatively high fin efficiency through the selection of fin lengths in proportion to the wire diameter in the mesh fins.
