HONEYCOMB BODY HAVING MICROSTRUCTURES IN INTERSECTING CONFIGURATION

摘要

A METAL HONEYCOMB BODY INCLUDES SHEET METAL LAYERS (3, 4). AT LEAST SOME OF THE LAYERS HAVE AT LEAST ONE MACROSTRUCTURE FORMING A MULTIPLICITY OF CHANNELS (2) FOR CONDUCTING A FLUID (F) IN A FLOW DIRECTION (R) AND DETERMINING A HONEYCOMB SHAPE. AT LEAST SOME OF THE LAYERS (3, 4) HAVE MICROSTRUCTURES (5) AT LEAST IN SOME REGIONS. THE MICROSTRUCTURES (5) EXTEND AT AN ANGLE TO THE FLOW DIRECTION (R), SUCCEED ONE ANOTHER AT INTERVALS AND INTERSECT ONE ANOTHER.( FIGURE 2 )
