Abstract
A heat exchanger includes a heat transfer surface to transfer heat to or from a working fluid, a manifold region with a plurality of internal walls defining a plurality of inlet and outlet passages, and a heat transfer region disposed between the manifold region and the heat transfer surface. The internal walls are substantially normal to the heat transfer surface for directing working fluid in a normal direction, and include a plurality of alternating inflow and outflow portions in fluid communication with corresponding inlet passages and outlet passages. Adjacent inflow and outflow portions are in fluid communication with each other. A heat transfer structure is disposed in each of the plurality of inflow portions and extend between the internal walls of the inflow portion, the heat transfer structure being in thermal communication with the heat transfer surface to transfer heat between the working fluid and the heat transfer surface.
