A plate fin heat exchanger for truck is designed to cool high temperature and high pressure oil using high pressure water. This heat exchanger on a recent trip from Miami to Cleveland developed an oil leak and it contaminated water. The plate fin heat exchanger uses gaskets to separate oil and water paths. Since this unit is used in trucks, vibration should also be considered. Run a FMEA analysis and suggest the possible solution to avoid future failure.
