Stackable dry cooler assembly with heat exchanger panels

A heat exchanger assembly, comprising:

• a frame comprising:
• a first leg and a second leg laterally spaced apart from the first leg;
• a lower transversal member extending laterally and interconnecting the first and second legs;
• a first upstanding member and a second upstanding member laterally spaced apart from the first upstanding member, the first and second upstanding members extending upwardly from the lower transversal member;
• an upper transversal member extending laterally and disposed above the lower transversal member, the upper transversal member being connected to the first and second upstanding members;
• and
• a first upper retaining member and a second upper retaining member laterally spaced apart from the first upper retaining member, the first and second upper retaining members being connected to the upper transversal member and extending transversally to the upper transversal member;
• first and second heat exchanger panels for exchanging heat with air pulled into the heat exchanger assembly, each of the first and second heat exchanger panels extending from an upper end to a lower end and including a tubing arrangement for circulating fluid therein, wherein the upper end of the first heat exchanger panel is fastened by at least one first fastener to the first upper retaining member, wherein the upper end of the second heat exchanger panel is fastened by at least one second fastener to the second upper retaining member, the first and second heat exchanger panels being disposed in a V-configuration such that a distance between the upper ends of the first and second heat exchanger panels is greater than a distance between the lower ends of the first and second heat exchanger panels;
• and
• a fan for pulling air into the heat exchanger assembly via at least one of the first and second heat exchanger panels, the fan having a fan rotation axis extending generally parallel to the first and second upstanding members of the frame, wherein the frame further comprises a first angular member and a second angular member, wherein the first angular member is connected to the lower transversal member and the first heat exchanger panel, wherein the second angular member is connected to the lower transversal member and the second heat exchanger panel, and wherein the first angular member and the second angular member each have two faces that are perpendicular to one another and converge at a junction to form an angular shape that conforms to a corresponding angular shape of the lower ends of the first and second heat exchanger panels.
