Abstract
A stacked plate heat exchanger including a plurality of stacked plate pairs, each plate pair including first and second plates having elongate central portions surrounded by sealably joined edge portions with an elongate fluid passage defined between the central portions. Each plate pair has spaced apart inlet and outlet openings in flow communication with the fluid passage, at least some of the plate pairs having a substantially planar air-side fin plate extending peripherally outward from the joined edge portions, the fin plates of the stacked plate pairs being spaced apart and substantially parallel to each other. The fluid passage may be arranged at an angle relative to air flow direction.
