ABSTRACT:
A heat exchange assembly for a cooling system, having first and second cooling loops, includes a housing with a first coolant inlet and outlet and a second coolant inlet and outlet, respectively coupling to the first and second cooling loops, and multiple heat exchange elements. Each heat exchange element includes a first set and a second set of coolant flow passages intersecting different pairs of parallel face surfaces of the elements, with the second set of flow passages extending in a transverse direction to the first set of flow passages. The heat exchange elements are disposed within the housing with the first set of flow passages oriented in a first common direction in fluid communication with the first coolant inlet and outlet and the second set of flow passages oriented in a second common direction in fluid communication with the second coolant inlet and outlet of the housing.
