1. A method of forming a heat exchanger, the method comprising:
forming a monolithic core comprising a first set of flow passages and having a core coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE); and
additively manufacturing onto the monolithic core a first manifold to define an integral, unitary body having the monolithic core and the first manifold, with the first manifold defining a first fluid inlet in fluid communication with the first set of flow passages, wherein at least a portion of the first manifold has a first CTE less than the core CTE.
