DUMBBELL SHAPED PLATE FIN

A heat exchanger element for use in a heat exchanger includes an outer wall formed into a tubular shape including a first portion and a second portion. The first portion is arranged parallel to and is spaced apart from the second portion. A plurality of fin structures extends between the first portion and the second portion of the outer wall. Each of the fin structures defines a flow channel configured to provide fluid communication between an outer surface of the first portion of the outer wall and an outer surface of the second portion of the outer wall. An interior of the outer wall is configured to receive a first fluid while an exterior of the outer wall and each of the flow channels defined by the fin structures are configured to receive a second fluid in heat exchange relationship with the first fluid.
