An exhaust gas heat recovery (EGHR) heat exchanger, for recovering waste heat from the hot exhaust gases of an internal combustion engine, having a housing and a cylindrical body disposed within the housing. The cylindrical body defines a central passageway and together with the housing defines an annular passageway for the flow of hot exhaust gases. A bypass means is disposed within the central passageway and adapted to selectively by-pass at least a portion of the exhaust gas from the central passageway to the annular passageway. The EGHR heat exchanger also includes at least one fluid tube extending along a tube axis and having at least one lobe extending the length of the tube thereby defining a lobed tube. The lobed tube is twisted about the tube axis forming a twisted lobed tube which is then coiled about the longitudinal axis within the annular exhaust gas passageway.

1. An exhaust gas heat recovery (EGHR) heat exchanger for an internal combustion engine, comprising: a housing disposed along a longitudinal axis, wherein said housing includes a first end cap, a second end cap axially spaced from said first end cap, and an interior surface therebetween defining a cavity;a cylindrical body disposed within said cavity and includes a first end extending through said first end cap defining an exhaust gas inlet, a second end extending through said second end cap defining an exhaust gas outlet, an interior surface defining a central exhaust gas passageway, and an exterior surface cooperating with said interior surface of housing to define an annular exhaust gas passageway;means for selectively by-passing a portion of the exhaust gas from the central exhaust gas passageway to the annular passageway; andat least one fluid tube disposed within said annular exhaust gas passageway and coiled about the longitudinal axis defining a plurality of coils;wherein said fluid tube includes a local tube axis and a cross sectional profile substantially perpendicular to said local tube axis; andwherein said cross sectional profile includes at least one protrusion extending radially from said local tube axis,wherein said at least one protrusion defines a curved projection,wherein said curved projection defines a lobe extending substantially the length of said fluid tube,wherein said fluid tube is twisted about said local tube axis thereby defining a twisted lobed fluid tube,wherein said twisted lobed fluid tube includes a spiraled groove,wherein said spiraled groove is oriented substantially transverse to the flow of hot exhaust gas flowing through said annular exhaust gas passageway,wherein said at least one of said plurality of coils includes a diameter Dlarge and an adjacent coil includes a diameter Dsmall, and said fluid tube includes a diameter d, wherein said Dlarge is greater than Dsmall by 10 to 70 percent of d. 2. The EGHR heat exchanger of claim 1, wherein said interior surface of said housing defines a rib spiraled about the longitudinal axis. 3. The EGHR heat exchanger of claim 2, wherein said twisted lobed tube includes four (4) lobes substantially equally distributed about said local tube axis. 4. An exhaust gas heat recovery (EGHR) heat exchanger for an internal combustion engine, comprising: a housing disposed along a longitudinal axis, wherein said housing includes a first end cap, a second end cap axially spaced from said first end cap, and an interior surface therebetween defining a cavity;a cylindrical body longitudinally disposed within said cavity and includes a first end extending through said first end cap defining an exhaust gas inlet, an opposite second end extending through said second end cap defining an exhaust gas outlet, an exterior surface cooperating with said interior surface of housing to define an annular exhaust gas passageway, and an interior surface defining a central exhaust gas passageway; andat least one fluid tube disposed within said annular exhaust gas passageway and coiled about the longitudinal axis defining a coiled tube;wherein said fluid tube includes a local tube axis and a cross-sectional profile having a plurality of lobes extending radially from said local tube axis,wherein said fluid is twisted about said local tube axis defining a twisted lobed tube,wherein said twisted lobed tube is coiled about said longitudinal axis defining a plurality of coils having varying diameters about said longitudinal axis,wherein said twisted lobed tube includes 4 lobes substantially equally distributed about said local tube axis,wherein said at least one of said plurality of coils includes a diameter Dlarge and an adjacent coil includes a diameter Dsmall, and said fluid tube includes a diameter d, wherein said Dlarge is greater than Dsmall by 10 to 70 percent of d. 5. The EGHR heat exchanger of claim 4, wherein said interior surface of said housing defines a rib spiraled about axis A.
