Résumé

The thermal performance of an automotive radiator plays an important role in the performance of an automobile's cooling system and all other associated systems. The aluminium roll-bonding technique widely used in manufacturing the cooling compartments for domestic refrigeration units is one of the cheapest methods for heat exchanger manufacturing. Using this technique, it is possible to manufacture a wide range of heat exchanger configurations that can help augment heat transfer whilst reducing pressure drops. CFD results obtained for a patterned plate heat exchanger using the CFD code FLUENT show tremendous levels of possible performance improvement on both sides of the heat exchanger.
