Abstract

Fluid-to-air heat exchanger apparatus which maximizes heat dissipation capacity for a given base size, while reducing operating sound level. The components of the heat exchanger are vertically located in a vertically elongated housing, with the tube core and fans centrally disposed therein. Sound attenuating muffler sections are disposed above and below the tube core and fans, with the air entering and leaving the housing adjacent to the bottom and top portions thereof, respectively.
