Abstract

An EGR cooler has supports supporting coolant core tubes on the top, the bottom, and the side walls of a cooler housing. Each support has a base plate on at least one tube and an overlying spring plate which bears against the respective wall on the interior of the cooler housing. The supports for supporting at least one tube on the top and bottom walls are at the same first location along the lengths of the tubes, and the supports for supporting the tubes on the side walls are at the same second location along the lengths of the tubes. The second location is between the first location and an outlet header plate at exit ends of the tubes and the tubes are free of support on the top wall, the bottom wall and the side walls between the first location and an inlet header plate.
