Abstract

The cross-section of the passages is arched inwards. Through the tubes and around them different heat-exchanging media flow. The tube ends (2) extend as far as below the level of the tube base surface (6) and with the passages (5) form an all-round contact surface (7), to which connect on both sides a solder gap (8) between the tube (1) and the passage (5).
