Abstract

A heat exchanger of a ceramic body, or the like, having a plurality of elongate flow passages in parallel relationship with the placement of the passages staggered with respect to the opposite end cover walls of the ceramic body, transversely extending parts of both cover walls being absent to expose those staggered passages that pass closer to the respective cover wall, thereby to permit access for fluid media to the flow passages; particular characteristic features of the passages are disclosed.
