ABSTRACT:
A unitized heater and evaporator core for an HVAC system of a vehicle comprises a plurality of pairs of stacked plates joined together to form separate and discrete tube passes for the heater and the evaporator for the air conditioning system with tanks provided at opposite ends thereof. Each tube includes an internal partition wall for separating heater and evaporator fluids in isolated sections of the tubes. Air centers are connected between adjacent pairs of plates for directing an inlet air stream through the combined evaporator and heater core. Tabs extending from the partition wall formed by the plates of the tubes provide support for separating the air center fins to be connected to the heater and evaporator sections of the tube of the core to inhibit the conduction of heat energy therebetween.
