CA 2116351

A manifold assembly (110) for heat exchangers comprises a tank (120) and a header plate (150) which both have a semicir- cular cross section, the tank outer diameter being substantially equal to the inner diameter of the header plate to allow the tank to be inserted into the header plate. A plurality of tube receiving holes (170) are formed through the header plate. A flange or lip (172) is formed around the tube holes to provide a tube lead-in and a joint filleting pocket. A plurality of opposed slots (180) are formed through the tank and header plate to receive baffles (190) for locking the tank and header plate together during assembly and for adjusting the flow pattern during use. The baffles engage the inner walls (182) and sides of the slots. The tank, header plate, and baffles are formed of aluminum and aluminum alloy materials. A bracket (200) or tabs (156) for securing a bracket can be formed on the header plate.
