Abstract: An aluminum tube-and-fin assembly for easy insertion into a manifold seal is provided. The assembly comprises a generally cylindrical, elongated tube and fins extending radially outward from the body. A bead is formed circumferentially around the tube end. A smooth, curved, circumferentially disposed bead corner is interposed between the bead and the tube end. The bead corner has a frustoconical curved shape and a radii of curvature of at least 0.2 mm.

Abstract: A tube-and-fin assembly comprises a generally elliptical, cylindrical, elongated aluminum tube and a plurality of aluminum fins. Each fin extends outward from a side of the tube body to an apex. The aluminum assembly has a ratio of fin height to fin density (Mokire ratio) of between about 0.3200 and about 0.4125. The fin height is about 6.4 mm to about 6.6 mm and the fin density is about 16 to 20 fins per inch (FPI). The fins may be part of a corrugated sheet affixed to either side of the tube. The aluminum assembly achieves heat transfer performance similar to that of copper assemblies while maintaining a similar space claim.

Abstract: A grommet for insertion into an opening of a radiator header plate may have a cylindrical outer surface having a body outer diameter, an annular shoulder proximate a top surface and extending outwardly beyond the outer surface of the body, and an annular bead proximate a bottom surface of the body and extending outwardly beyond the outer surface of the body and have a bead outer diameter that is greater than the body outer diameter. The annular bead may include a tapered bottom portion having a decreasing outer diameter as the tapered bottom portion extends downwardly toward the bottom surface of the body, with the tapered bottom portion terminating with a bottom outer diameter that is less than the body outer diameter.
