Abstract
A parallel flow vehicle air conditioning condenser utilizes baffle plates with an interference fit. The baffle plates locate within header and tank assemblies. Parallel tubes extend between the header and tank assemblies for causing refrigerant flow between the header and tank assemblies and through the tubes. The header and tank assembly is made up of two portions which are brazed together. The baffle plate has abutment edges that abut the interior walls of the two portions in an interference fit to deform the walls and cause sealing.
