Abstract
The disclosure relates to an improved recuperative heat exchanger for a turbine engine. Heat exchanger modules have discrete passages therein for the relatively high pressure compressor discharge air and relative low pressure exhaust gases. A continuous seal is provided at each end of the exhaust passages in the heat exchanger that is expandable into positive engagement with the heat exchange module.
