Patent attributes
A thermal management system and method includes a body having an inlet and an outlet configured to direct a first fluid into and out of the body. The body incudes a channel that is fluidly separate from the inlet and the outlet. A second fluid is directed through the channel. A conduit assembly is fluidly coupled with the inlet and the outlet. The conduit assembly includes plural fluidly separate conduits. Each of the plural conduits extend between a corresponding first end and a corresponding second end along a corresponding tortuous path. The plural conduits are intertwined with each other between the first ends and the second ends. The plural conduits are positioned such that the second fluid flowing through the channel passes over the plural conduits and exchanges thermal energy with the first fluid that moves within each of the plural conduits.
