Publication number: 20210088291Abstract: A tubular body arrangement for a temperature-control device, e.g., for temperature-controlling an electrical device, is disclosed. The tubular body arrangement includes at least one first tubular body and at least one second tubular body that can each be flowed through by a temperature-control fluid and that each include a circumferential wall extending along an axial direction. The first tubular body has a first tube flange that is deformable for compensating for at least one of a position change and a dimensional change of an axial length of at least one of the tubular bodies. The first tube flange projects from the circumferential wall of the first tubular body at an angle. The second tubular body is mounted on the first tube flange so that the first tubular body and the second tubular body jointly bound a tubular body interior that can be flowed through by the temperature-control fluid.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 22, 2020Publication date: March 25, 2021Inventors: Jochen Eppinger, Thorsten Mueller, Daniel Rothmaier, Hans Schreiner
