Heat exchanger with bypass seal allowing differential thermal expansion

摘要: The present invention is embodied in a heat exchanger, which allows differential thermal expansion of its elements while providing bypass seal. In at least one embodiment, the exchanger includes, shell for containing first gas, core positioned within shell, and seal between shell. some restricting flow gas past This space to exist preventing from bypassing by traveling through space. As such, forces pass core, greatly increasing transfer core. Preferably, mounted position adjacent free (moveable) end or ends can be folded into several layers such that folds abut both When expands contracts draw apart (unfolded) compacted (further folded), as case may be. another single layer material with sufficient slack allow expand contract separately
