Abstract

A heat exchanger includes an extruded base member having a planar central portion and spaced-apart cooling fins extending from one side of the planar central portion. A cross-over member is located on the other side of the planar central portion and includes a plurality of spaced-apart flow channels that communicate with inlet and outlet manifolds formed in the base member or the cross-over member, or partially in both the base member and the cross-over member.
