Abstract: Heat exchanger or heat accumulator bodies which are simple to produce. The bodies consist of a stack of extruded hollow chamber panels with plane smooth outer walls and webs that join the outer walls in a single piece. The hollow chamber panels are joined to one another in the stack on the front side by locking connections. The locking connections can be produced with an inserted electrical band heater, by glue seams, or by undercut interlockings. The hollow chamber panels are not joined to one another in the in-between areas or are not everywhere joined in the in-between areas.

Abstract: Extruded web multiple panels are produced with undulated webs by extrusion of a thermoplastic material by a device including an extruder, a slotted die connected thereto which comprises core pieces in the die slot for forming the webs, a movable mold channel placed downstream of the slotted die, and a removal device. The undulation of the webs is produced by friction forces rhythmically alternating in direction crosswise to the extrusion direction. The friction forces are allowed to act in the mold channel on the extrudate in an area where it is still above its softening temperature. The friction forces are produced either by a rhythmic crosswise movement of the entire mold channel or by movable sections of the mold channel walls of a special mold channel.
