Abstract:
A method for manufacturing a heat exchanger includes stacking a plurality of parting sheets, a plurality of lengthwise closure bars, and a plurality of widthwise closure bars to form a rectangular first heat exchanger section. The first heat exchanger section includes at least one widthwise passage extending between a pair of the widthwise closure bars and at least one lengthwise passage extending between a pair of the lengthwise closure bars. The method also includes brazing the rectangular first heat exchanger section together and cutting a first side and a second side of the rectangular first heat exchanger section to give the first heat exchanger section a tapered-trapezoid profile. The method further includes brazing an end of a second heat exchanger section to the first or second side of the first heat exchanger section.

Claim (Index 9):
The heat exchanger of  claim 8 , wherein the first parting sheet of the first section is longer than the second parting sheet of the first section, wherein the second parting sheet of the first section is longer than the third parting sheet of the first section, wherein the third parting sheet of the first section is longer than the fourth parting sheet of the first section.
