A counterflow heat exchanger configured to exchange heat between a first fluid flow (12) at a first pressure and a second fluid flow (14) at a second pressure includes a first fluid inlet (18), a first fluid outlet (20) fluidly coupled to the first fluid inlet via a core section, a second fluid inlet (24), and a second fluid outlet (26) fluidly coupled to the second fluid inlet via the core section. The core section includes a plurality of first fluid passages (30) configured to convey the first fluid flow from the first fluid inlet toward the first fluid outlet, and a plurality of second fluid passages (32) configured to convey the second fluid flow from the second fluid inlet toward the second fluid outlet such that the first fluid flow exchanges thermal energy with the second fluid flow at the core section. Each first fluid passage of the plurality of first fluid passages has a circular cross-section.
