A formed plate heat exchanger of the air and hot gas counterflow type for gas turbines with provision for thermal response zones of different heat transfer capability in the hot gas passages of the core, each succeeding zone in the gas flow direction having greater heat transfer capability than a preceding zone to reduce temperature gradients and core thermal fatigue, with elimination of core cracking and splitting.
