[...] afin d’obtenir le meilleur échange thermique possible entre l'eau circulant à l'extérieur des tubes et le fluide frigorigène circulant à l'intérieur, il est essentiel que l'eau ne puisse pas circuler parallèlement aux tubes, mais perpendiculairement à ces derniers. On obtient facilement ce résultat en disposant à l'intérieur de la calandre de l'échangeur une série de chicanes, de telle sorte que l'eau doit obligatoirement circuler tantôt de haut en bas, tantôt de bas en haut, suivant la position de chaque chicane [...] 4, record 1, French, - chicane
