Abstract:
A heat exchanger arrangement includes walls defining at least two circuit passages for porting a first fluid, a first of the circuit passages defining a first passage length, and a second of the circuit passages defining a second passage length, the second passage length being different from the first passage length, the walls being in thermal communication with a second fluid while isolating the first fluid from the second fluid, at least one of the first circuit passage and the second circuit passage includes a flow control feature configured to decrease an imbalance in flow between the first circuit passage and the second circuit passage compared to if the flow control feature were not present.
