Abstract:
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, an outer periphery of the second sides of the first and second disk members engaging each other to form a disk unit, said disk unit having a chamber to facilitate flow of heat exchange media therein; and a heat exchange medium directing member disposed within said disk unit, a first end of the heat exchange medium directing member engaging the inlet of the first disk member, said first end having a first channel formed at an angle to direct heat exchange media flowing in from the inlet of the first disk member to the chamber, a second end of said heat exchange medium directing member engaging the outlet of the second disk member, said second end of the heat exchange medium directing member having a second channel formed at an angle to direct heat exchange media out of the chamber through the outlet of the second disk member, the second channel being disposed in a first side portion of the heat exchange directing member which is generally diagonally opposite from a second portion of the heat exchange medium directing member in which the first channel is disposed, wherein a plurality of said disk units are coupled together such that the outlet of a first disk unit provides the heat exchange medium to the inlet of an adjacent second disk unit.
