Abstract
To provide a ceramic heat exchanger which has reduced joints, and thus, is easy to produce and less likely to leak and a method of producing same.The ceramic heat exchanger 1 according to the present invention comprises a body 2 having first channels 21 for a high-temperature medium to flow and second channels 22 for a low-temperature medium to flow, and lids 3 each having openings 31, joined to the body 2 at opposite ends 2a, 2b with the openings 31 connected to the first channels 21, the body 2 further having inlet channels 23 formed in a first channel 21 outlet-side end portion 2a to allow the low-temperature medium to enter the body at a side thereof and flow into the second channels 22, and outlet channels 24 formed in a first channel 21 inlet-side end portion 2b to allow the low-temperature medium to flow out of the second channels 22 and leave the body at the side thereof.
