Abstract

See full text

A charge air cooler, e.g., as used with a supercharger having meshing rotors in sealing contact with a housing, the housing having an inlet port to admit air into the meshing rotors and the housing having an outlet port to expel air from the meshing rotors, the charge air cooler having an inlet-side core for transmitting the flow of pressurized air, and an outlet-side core receiving the flow of pressurized air transmitted from the inlet-side core and further transmitting the flow of pressurized air, each core having coolant conduits and fins joined to the coolant conduits for contact with the flow of pressurized air, the fins being arranged with a predetermined density, wherein the inlet-side core fin density is lower than the outlet-side core fin density, whereby the inlet-side core presents less resistance to the flow of pressurized air than the outlet-side core and the outlet-side core presents greater surface area for heat conductance from the flow of pressurized air than the inlet-side core. Charge air coolers with this configuration provide improved pressure and temperature characteristics in a supercharger's flow of pressurized air to an engine.
