Abstract:
1. An assembly comprising: an intake manifold; an outlet manifold; a heat exchanger duct that comprises an intake cone, an outlet cone, and a heat exchanger tube sealingly connected to the intake cone and the outlet cone; a bypass duct, wherein the heat exchanger duct and the bypass duct are each sealingly connected between the intake manifold and the outlet manifold and are disposed substantially parallel to each other; and a heat exchanger disposed in the heat exchanger duct to achieve heat transfer from an exhaust gas to a fluid, the heat exchanger having a first end and a second end wherein the first end is sealingly connected to the heat exchanger duct and the second end is slideably received in the heat exchanger duct to allow thermal expansion of the heat exchanger relative to the heat exchanger duct, and wherein an outlet side of the heat exchanger is slideably received in the outlet cone.
