Abstract
A heat exchanger is provided. The heat exchanger includes one or more exchanger units that each have a core and manifolds. The core of an exchanger unit is formed by multiple unit cells coupled together in flow communication to create a flow distribution grid. Each unit cell has at a first primary channel, a second primary channel, a first secondary channel in flow communication with the first primary channel, and a second secondary channel in flow communication with the second primary channel. The first secondary channel traverses through the second primary channel and the second secondary channel traverses through the first primary channel. Each manifold includes two chambers for separating fluids flowing through the heat exchanger, with one chamber being in flow communication with one of the primary channels and having one or more tubes traversing therethrough to provide flow communication between the other primary channel and the other chamber.
