ABSTRACT:
A heat exchanger is disclosed with one piece manifolds formed from a unitary sheet of metal. Each manifold has first and second sidewalls and a third sidewall extending therebetween the a lap joint between the side edges of the metal sheet. The first and second sidewalls are flat and the first is provided with tube apertures for receiving cooling tubes extending between a pair of manifolds. The second sidewall is flat and is provided with a socket for receiving the end of a pipe fitting in an interlocking connection. The manifold is clad on both sides with a brazing material and the manifold assembly with all attached parts are heated in a brazing oven to effect final assembly of the heat exchanger.
