ABSTRACT:
A heat exchanger (10) for an automotive vehicle includes a pair of manifolds (12, 14) each including a header portion (24) and a tank portion (26). The tank portion (26) includes a predetermined number of generally horizontal rib portions (30) formed therein at predetermined positions. The heat exchanger (10) further includes a plurality of tubular elements (16) disposed in spaced, substantially parallel relation and which define flow paths for the coolant between the manifolds (12, 14). At least one of the tubular elements (32) has a length greater than an adjacent tubular element (16) and extends through the header portion into mating engagement with the rib portion (30) of the tank (26) of one of the manifolds to form baffle means (36) for preventing the flow of coolant therepast.
