  • Patent number: 11421949
    Abstract: A flat tube for an exhaust gas cooler including two flat wide sides and two rounded narrow sides. The flat tube further including a plurality of moulded turbulence projections arranged on the two wide sides in two flow rows and projecting from a respective one of the two wide sides toward the other of the two wide sides. The plurality of turbulence projections are respectively structured in an elongated manner and arranged at an angle relative to a longitudinal direction. The flat tube also including a plurality of moulded support projections projecting from a respective one of the two wide sides away from the other of the two wide sides. The plurality of support projections are arranged between the two flow rows. The two narrow sides each have an elongated flat region that merges into the two wide sides via a plurality of rounded corner regions.
