A core for a charge air cooler comprises inner and outer concentric tubes
providing an axially extending annular passageway for flow of a fluid,
preferably a liquid coolant. A first inlet and a first outlet are
provided at the ends of the axial annular passageway. Arranged on an
outer surface of the outer tube is at least one circumferential fluid
flow passageway for flow of a fluid, preferably air. Each circumferential
flow passageway is provided with a corrugated strip fin comprising a
plurality of rows of corrugations. The core is combined with an outer
housing to form a heat exchanger. The housing is provided with an inlet
and an outlet for the fluid flowing through the circumferential flow
passageways. Other embodiments are disclosed in which the heat exchanger
is adapted for use with three fluids and in which additional cooling
capacity is provided by the provision of coolant passageways in the
housing.
