Appl. No.:

09/458416

Inventors:

Chao Abraham Zhang - Macomb MI
Shyr-Ing Hu - Bloomfield Hills MI
Henry Mehraban - Plymouth MI
Ramez S. Abdulnour - West Bloomfield MI

Assignee:

Visteon Global Technologies, Inc. - Dearborn MI

International Classification:

F28F 1302

US Classification:

165146, 165111, 165151, 165152, 165913

Abstract:

A continuous combination fin for a heat exchanger includes a base wall having a first portion, a second portion and a third portion. The continuous combination fin also includes a plurality of entrance louvers in the first portion extending outwardly at a predetermined angle in a first direction from the base wall. The continuous combination fin includes a plurality of exit louvers in the third portion extending outwardly at a predetermined angle in a second direction from the base wall reversed from the first direction. The continuous combination fin further includes a plurality of drainage louvers in one of the first portion and the second portion and the third portion that are off-set relative to each other such that air flows through the entrance louvers and exit louvers and water drains through the drainage louvers.
