Interesting...Could you share more details WRT to using microtubes in an Air-to-Air intercooler configuration?

This can fully illustrate the advantages of the micro-tube heat exchange structure.

Yes, but that is an Air-to-Water radiator configuration where one could run a much smaller Air-to-Water micro-tube intercooler as a heat exchanger in another location. PICs in the first post depict an Air-to-Air micro-tube intercooler without using any coolant.

Interested in the final product, what's the price point of your microtube intercooler and ETA?

Gases and liquids are merely heat exchange media. This highly efficient heat exchange structure is also very applicable to the nuclear energy industry, chemical industry, and military industry fields.

We are currently improving the production process to reduce production costs and will soon officially launch a product with a cost-effective price.

Would this type of design be more suseptible to damage from road/track debris? Just curious if it would work well for daily driven cars also or how robust it would be compared to current designs.

The design has taken into account the impact of debris, so the thickness of the micro-tube walls at the windward end is of a different specification from that at the rear end.

Agree on the benefit of using microtubes as a structure. What would be the change of state for an Air-to-Air intercooler that does not incorporate the use of other liquids, gasses, or an external heat exchanger?

Industrial applications commonly use other pressurized gasses or liquids using microtube structures such as those produced by Mezzo Technologies. Industrial refrigerant systems used in warehouses typically use much larger tubes with ammonia.

For air-to-air intercoolers that do not use other liquids, gases or external heat exchangers, the advantage of micro-tube structures remains the best. The only drawback of micro-tube structures is the manufacturing difficulty and cost.
