Abstract

A heat exchanger includes a casing, a fluid flow path extending between first and second ends of the casing; first and second bundles of heat exchanger tubes in first and second portions of a fluid flow path extending through the casing, and a third section of the fluid flow path connecting the first and second sections and having a sealing plate with one or more apertures for the fluid flow path to pass therethrough. By virtue of the sealing plate and its relationship with the adjacent structure of the heat exchanger, adjacent ends of the two bundles of tubes are each movable in at least one direction with respect to the casing and the other bundle of tubes.
