Abstract
A heat exchange apparatus includes first and second sections, and further includes a first cross-flow fluid passageway disposed at least partially within the first section, defined by an internal surface of the first section, and including an inlet and outlet. The apparatus also includes a second cross-flow fluid passageway disposed at least partially within the second section and including an inlet and an outlet. The apparatus includes an interior fluid passageway with at least one tube disposed at least partially within the first section and at least partially within the second section, extending at least partially through the first passageway and at least partially through the second passageway, and including at least an inlet and an outlet. A sealing zone is disposed between the first section and the second section. The sealing zone isolates the first section from the second section either or both mechanically and in fluid communication.
