Intercooler assembly

Abstract

An intercooler assembly for cooling charge air to be delivered to an internal combustion engine is disclosed. The said assembly is disposed along an axis in the axial direction, including an intercooler housing having a housing cavity for receiving an intercooler core therein. Conventional cooling fluid is channeled axially through an axial chamber of the intercooler core for cooling the core and charge air is channeled around the outer surface of the core for cooling the charge air, wherein the core assembly further including a means for rotating the intercooler core about the axis, thereby increasing the cooling of the charge air as it flows around the outer surface of the intercooler core.
