Abstract
A heat exchanger () comprising a duct () through which a first fluid (e.g. a coolant such as ram air) may flow, and one or more vanes () disposed within the duct () and configured to disrupt the flow of the first fluid through the duct (). Each vane () comprises one or more flow channels () through which a second fluid (e.g. a fluid to be cooled, such as engine coolant) may flow so as to transfer heat between the first fluid flowing through the duct () and the second fluid flowing through the one or more flow channels (). The flow channels () within the vanes () are separated from the duct () by a channel wall such that fluid cannot flow between the duct () and the flow channels ().
