Abstract

Heat exchanger apparatuses of this type are composed of an air/air heat exchanger (1) and a coolant/air heat exchanger (2). According to the invention, the air/air heat exchanger comprises a plate heat exchanger and the coolant/air exchanger comprises a combined tube/plate exchanger. The tube/plate exchanger is provided with at least one unit which contains a tube coil wound in a meander-like manner, to each of the two broad sides of which a plate is attached. <IMAGE>
