Abstract

The invention relates to a heat exchanger (1) comprising a heat exchanger body (3) comprising at least a first channel wall portion (10), a second channel wall portion (20), and a third channel wall portion (30). The heat exchanger further comprises a first channel (5) for a first fluid, and a second channel (7) for a second fluid, such that heat is allowed to be transferred between the first channel and the second channel via the second channel wall portion. The heat exchanger comprises a plurality of first support structures (50) arranged in the first channel and extending from the first channel wall portion to the second channel wall portion, and a plurality of second support structures (70) arranged in said second channel and extending from the second channel wall portion to the thirdchannel wall portion. The support structures are configured to support the second and third channel wall portions during manufacturing of the heat exchanger.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of heat exchangers, for example for cooling purposes in vehicles, such as cooling heavy vehicles such as trucks, buses and construction equipment such as wheel loaders, articulated transporters, excavators and reverse Combustion engines in shovel loaders)). The heat exchanger can also be used for heating purposes by heating the heat transfer fluid in the heat exchanger. The invention also relates to the manufacture of the heat exchanger. Background technique [0002] A heat exchanger is a device that transfers heat, most commonly between two heat transfer fluids, for example in the manner in which a first fluid transfers heat to a second fluid. The heat transfer fluid can be a gas or a liquid. The primary purpose of a heat exchanger may be to meet heating needs (ie, to heat one of the heat transfer fluids), or to meet cooling needs (ie, to cool one of the heat transfer fluids). [0003] In vehicles, heat e...
