Abstract: The invention relates to a heat exchanger, in particular a flat pipe evaporator (1) for a motor vehicle air conditioning system, comprising at least one collecting tank (2) made of sheet steel which is divided in the longitudinal direction into at least two chambers and the ends of the pipe, in particular, flat pipes, are introduced in the base thereof. Said collecting tank (2) comprises a tunnel-shaped part (5), an essentially flat part (4) which forms the base, and covers (6) which are arranged on the front side thereof. At least one cover (6) is embodied in a flat manner in at least the outer edge area thereof and is positioned in a positive fit in the collecting tank.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for the exchange of heat, in particular, for a motor vehicle, comprising a number of flow tubes for the transport of a fluid, whereby the device has a given depth (T) and, at least in sections, some flow tubes are arranged at a given separation from each other, whereby the depth and the given separation are in a ratio (V) to each other.

Abstract: A device is provided for heat transfer and in particular an evaporator for an air conditioning system of motor vehicles having at least one header tank including at least two header chambers which are substantially defined by a base device and a top device. The top device includes middle side walls which are arranged adjacent to one another at least over a portion. The distance between the two side walls increases with the height above the base device.
