Abstract:

The heat exchanger with a radial heat source has a first header, a second header, first tubes and second tubes. The first header is configured to allow liquid to enter and exit the heat exchanger. The second header is spaced from the first header and has at least one lower baffle provided therein. The first tubes extend from the first header to the second header, with the first tubes being spaced proximate to the radial heat source. The second tubes extend from the first header to the second header, with the second tubes being spaced from the radial heat source a greater distance than the first tubes. An enhancement device may be positioned in respective tubes of the first tubes to create a water vortex in the first tubes wherein boiling of the water in the first tubes is prevented.
