Abstract
An exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) cooler assembly can be used to perform heat exchange between cooling water and exhaust gas. The EGR cooler assembly includes an EGR cooler in which cooling water flows, and a diesel particulate filter (DPF) including a housing accommodating therein the EGR cooler and a filter unit for post-treatment of the exhaust gas. An inside of the housing is sectioned by a partition into a first space in which the EGR cooler is inserted and a second space in contact with the filter unit, and the partition has a flow hole formed thereon in order to allow the exhaust gas to flow to the EGR cooler.
