ABSTRACT:
The disclosed invention relates to a counterflow type heat exchanger composed of plural heat exchange units characterized by unique inlet and outlet headers. Each header has an end face providing an opening to the header interior and a closed end face, both of which extend obliquely from the tube sheet to join at an apex and which are symmetrically arranged with respect to each other. Such a construction enables the flow of fluid passing through each heat exchange unit to be uniform across the width of the heat exchange unit.
