Abstract
A heat exchanger unit comprising of plurality of disk type heat exchanger units, disk type heat exchanger units having an inlet and an outlet as a tubular member. Within a disk type heat exchanger unit is a chamber to facilitate flow of heat exchange media, having a heat exchange medium directing member disposed within the chamber to direct flow of heat exchange media herein.
Claims19
1) A disk type heat exchanging device comprising:
- a first disk member having an inlet formed as a tubular member on a first side of the first disk member;
- a second disk member having an outlet formed as a tubular member on a first side of the second disk member;
- said first disk member and said second disk member coupled together on respective second side of disks, outer periphery of the two disk members engaging each other, forming a disk unit;
- said disk unit having a chamber within to facilitate flow of heat exchange media herein;
- a heat exchange medium directing member disposed within said disk unit, first end of the heat exchange medium directing member engaging the inlet of the first disk member, said first end having a channel formed at an angle, directing heat exchange media flowing in from the inlet of the first disk member to the chamber, second end of said heat exchange medium directing member engaging the outlet of the second disk member, said second end of heat exchange medium directing member having a channel formed at an angle, directing heat exchange media out of the chamber through the outlet of the second disk member;
- wherein plurality of said disk units are coupled together to form a single row of heat exchanger unit.

14) A method of making a heat exchanger comprising:
- providing a first generally planar material having a tubular member formed on first side of said material, forming an inlet;
- cutting out a desired shaped disk member out of said first material, forming a first disk member;
- providing a second generally planar material having a tubular member formed on first side of said material, forming an outlet;
- cutting out a desired shaped disk member out of said second material, forming a second disk member;
- providing a material, said material having a channel cut at an angle on first end, a second channel cut at an angle on an opposite end, forming a heat exchange directing member;
- dispose said heat exchange medium directing member, first end of said heat exchange medium directing member engaging the inlet of the first disk member, second end of said heat exchange medium directing member engaging the outlet of the second disk member;
- couple said first disk member and second disk member on respective second side of disks, leaving a chamber between the respective second side of first disk member and second disk member forming a disk unit;
- wherein plurality of said disk units are coupled together, outlet of a first disk unit engaging an inlet of a second disk unit.
