ABSTRACT:
A heat-exchange arrangement includes a housing which has an inner surface defining a first flow path for a fluid to undergo heat-exchange. The inner surface of the housing comprises a pair of substantially parallel surface portions which bound the first flow path along the flow direction so that the first flow path is of substantially constant width along the flow direction. A plurality of spaced conduits is arranged in the first flow path and defines a series of second flow paths for a medium to undergo heat-exchange with a fluid flowing in the first flow path. The conduits are arranged such that substantially the same predetermined minimum distance separates the most closely spaced ones of the conduits. A plurality of baffles in the first flow path serves to regulate the flow pattern of a fluid flowing in the first flow path. The baffles are arranged in such a manner that, in the region between two adjacent ones of the baffles, the projected free flow cross-section of the first flow path as determined in a plane substantially paralleling the conduits is substantially equal to the projected free flow cross-section of the first flow path as determined in a plane substantially normal to the conduits. The arrangement outlined permits a more uniform heat-exchange than was possible heretofore to be achieved. In particular, the arrangement makes it possible to insure that the heat-exchange effect for any one of the conduits is approximately the same as for any other conduit.
