Definitions
- the invention relates to a heat exchanger.
- the invention relates to the heat exchanger for a motor vehicle.
- the present invention relates to the field of heat exchanger and in particular to heat exchangers intended to be traversed by a fluid under high pressure.
- the invention relates more particularly to air conditioning gas coolers, inner gas coolers or evaporators capable of being traversed by a refrigerant fluid in the supercritical state, as is the case for natural gases such as carbon dioxide, also known as CO2 or R744.
- natural gases such as carbon dioxide, also known as CO2 or R744.
- Such heat exchangers find particular application in motor vehicles.
- a known fluid refrigerant circuit forms a closed loop in which the refrigerant fluid flows in order to dissipate or collect calories through heat exchangers.
- the heat exchanger comprises the manifold to connect said heat exchanger to the fluid refrigerant circuit, said manifold linking pipes from the fluid refrigerant circuit to the heat exchanger core, in order for the refrigerant fluid to flow through heat exchanger tubes.
- this refrigerant fluid In a fluid refrigerant circuit traversed by a refrigerant fluid in the supercritical state, this refrigerant fluid remains essentially in the gaseous state and under a very high pressure, which is usually around 100 bar. As a result, heat exchangers must be able to withstand such high pressure, the recommended burst pressure being generally three times the value of the nominal operating pressure, burst pressure thus reaching around 300 bars.
- a known heat exchangers comprise the manifolds and the heat exchange tubes allowing the refrigerant fluid to migrate between the manifolds.
- the heat exchange tubes also allow a thermal exchange between the refrigerant fluid, flowing inside said heat exchange tubes, and an air flowing outside the heat exchanger, thus capturing calories from the air flowing across the heat exchanger core.

This brings many drawbacks, starting from the assembling process of the heat exchanger. Individual tubes are difficult to introduce into tight slots in the manifolds. Moreover, the stack of tubes is not robust as such, since there is no interaction between the tubes forming said stack.
- the above-mentioned tube may be improved so that the robustness of the tube is increased and assembling process the of the heat exchanger is facilitated.

- the tube bundle further comprises a first tube, a second tube, a third tube and a fourth tube, wherein the first tubes form a first pass for a fluid, the second tubes form a second pass for the fluid, the third tubes form a third pass for the fluid, and the fourth tubes form a fourth pass for the for the fluid, the first tubes being fluidly connected together by a first channel in the first manifold group, the second tubes being fluidly connected with respective first tubes by the second channel in the second manifold group, the third tubes being fluidly connected with the second tubes by the second channel in the first manifold group, and the fourth tubes are fluidly connected with the third tubes by the first channel in the first manifold group.

- the header plate comprises at least one wall portion configured to support the depletion in the bridge of the tube bundle.
- the subject-matter of an invention is tube bundle 10 for the heat exchanger 1 which is adapted for heat exchange between a first fluid and a second fluid.

- the heat exchanger 1 aims to decrease the temperature of the first fluid. It can therefore be associated with the gas coolers, inner gas coolers, evaporators and alike. Further paragraphs provide discuss the main components and the mechanical or structural features which ensure improvement in terms of efficiency with respect to know heat exchangers.
- Fig. 1 shows a simple tube bundle 10 for a heat exchanger 1.
- the term "tube bundle” means that there is more than one tubular element suitable for fluid transportation, whereas the tubular elements are at least partially integrated to form one sub-component.
- the tube bundle 10 may be further referred to as "the bundle”
- the bundle 10 may comprise first tube 11, and at least one second tube 12.

- the first tube 11 may be fixed to the second tube 12 via a bridge 20 extending between median portion of corresponding shorter walls 14.
- the bridge 20 allows the tube 11, 12, 30, 40 to be more rigid as standalone sub-component, as well as functional element of the heat exchanger 1 in operational mode.
- the bridge 20 allows part of the heat accumulated in the tube 11, 12, 30, 40 to be evacuated, so that the risk of thermal shock to the individual tube 11, 12, 30, 40 is reduced.
- the bridge 20 allows fixing the first tube 11 and the second tube 12 together. Thickness of bridge, measured in perpendicular direction with respect to the flat surface of the longer walls 13 may be reduced in to increase thermal resistance between the first and second tube 11, 12, and thus prevent internal heat exchange between the first and second tubes 11 ,12. To prevent this there is higher heat exchange between consecutive tubes (for example refrigerant and the air).
- the bundle 10 may further comprise a third tube 30 and at least fourth tube 40 arranged in series with respect to the first tube 11 and the second tube 12.

- the bundle 10 may this comprise an arrangement in which the first tube 11 and the second tube 12 are sandwiched between the third tube 30 and the fourth tube 40, or an arrangement in which the first tube 11 and the second tube 12 are arranged subsequently to the third tube 30 and the fourth tube 40. These examples are not shown in the figures though.
- the bundle 10 may comprise the first tube 11, the second tube 12 and the third tube 30 connected via respective bridges 20, whereas the fourth tube 40 is free in the bundle 10.
- At least the first tube 11 may be bigger than the other tubes 12, 30, 40, Term bigger means that at least one of the external dimensions in the first tube 11 is greater than in the other tubes 12, 30, 40, yet it should be understood that term bigger should refer to width of the first tube 11, since it is the most promising dimension to change. Manipulating with the length of the tube 11, 12, 30, 40 or its height may cause the bundle 10 impossible to be used in production of heat exchanger 1.
- the first tube 11 may be greater than the second tube 12
