Claims
- 1. A heat exchanger comprising:
- a cylindrical main body formed by extrusion molding;
- a first connection having a first inlet for cooling water and a first outlet for high temperature fluid and connected to one end of the main body;
- a second connection having a second inlet for the high temperature fluid and a second outlet for the cooling water and connected to an opposite end of the main body;
- a plurality of cooling water passages formed in one piece with and as an integral part of the cylindrical main body, each of said cooling water passages extending axially along the main body and being connecting to the first inlet and the second outlet for the cooling water;
- a high temperature fluid passage formed in the main body and positioned radially inwardly of said plurality of cooling water passages, said high temperature fluid passage extending axially along the main body and being connected to the first outlet and the second inlet for the high temperature fluid;
- fin means for exchanging heat, said fin means being formed integrally and in one piece with said main body and said fin means extending into said high temperature fluid passage;
- a first unitary sealing gasket axially compressed between and separate from the first connection and axially facing seal faces surrounding the cooling water passage and the high temperature fluid passage at the one end of the main body, the first gasket having an opening connecting the first inlet for the cooling water with the cooling water passage; and
- a second unitary sealing gasket axially compressed between and separate from the second connection and axially facing seal faces surrounding the cooling water passage and the high temperature fluid passage at the opposite end of the main body, the second gasket having an opening connecting the second outlet for the cooling water with the cooling water passage.
- 2. A heat exchanger comprising:
- a cylindrical main body formed by extrusion molding, said cylindrical main body including a substantially centrally located cylindrical hollow portion;
- a first connection connected to one end of the main body, said first connection having a first inlet for cooling water, a first outlet for high temperature fluid, and a recess formed in an inner face thereof, one end of said cylindrical hollow portion being located in said recess in said first connection;
- a second connection connected to an opposite end of the main body, said second connection having a second inlet for the high temperature fluid, a second outlet for the cooling water, and a recess formed in an inner face thereof, an opposite end of said cylindrical hollow portion being located in said recess in said second connection;
- a plurality of cooling water passages formed in one piece with and as an integral part of the cylindrical main body, each of said cooling water passages extending axially along the main body and being connected to the first inlet and the second outlet for the cooling water;
- a high temperature fluid passage formed in the main body and positioned radially inwardly of said plurality of cooling water passages, said high temperature fluid passage extending substantially coaxially with respect to said cooling water passages;
- at least one opening extending through a wall of the cylindrical hollow portion at the one end thereof for communicating the first outlet with the high temperature fluid passage;
- at least one opening extending through the wall of the cylindrical hollow portion at the opposite end thereof for communicating the second inlet with the high temperature fluid passage;
- fin means for exchanging heat, said fin means being formed integrally and in one piece with said main body and said fin means extending into said high temperature fluid passage;
- a first unitary sealing gasket axially compressed between and separate from the first connection and axially facing seal faces surrounding the cooling water passage and the high temperature fluid passage at the one end of the main body, the first gasket having an opening connecting the first inlet for the cooling water with the cooling water passage; and
- a second unitary sealing gasket axially compressed between and separate from the second connection and axially facing seal faces surrounding the cooling water passage and the high temperature fluid passage at the opposite end of the main body, the second gasket having an opening connecting the second outlet for the cooling water with the cooling water passage.
- 3. The heat exchanger according to claim 2, including a plurality of openings extending through the wall of the cylindrical portion at the one end and at the opposite end thereof, said plurality of openings being spaced apart around the circumference of the cylindrical hollow portion at respective ends thereof.
