ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to the field of automotive heat exchangers, and, in particular, to ribbed heat exchanger tanks. This invention uses ribs that are oriented perpendicular to the local wall bending axes, and, therefore, not necessarily perpendicular to or parallel with the plane of the header to improve resistance to thereby reduce wall deflection and reduce stress concentration in or near the ribs.
