TLDR
In this paper, an air-cooled exhaust gas heat exchanger is proposed for motor vehicles comprising channels (exhaust gas channels) which can be cross-flown by the exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine between which ribs for air cooling are arranged.
Abstract
The invention relates to an air-cooled exhaust gas heat exchanger, in particular exhaust gas cooler ( 1 ) for motor vehicles comprising channels (exhaust gas channels) which can be cross-flown by the exhaust gas of an internal combustion engine, between which ribs ( 4 ) for air cooling are arranged According to the invention, the exhaust gas channels are embodied as tubes, in particular as flat tubes ( 3 ), which form the ribs ( 4 ) of a rib tube block ( 2 ) and the tube ( 3 ) has tube ends ( 3 a ) which are received in the collecting vessels ( 5 ) for the exhaust gas
