Heat-exchanger with a bundle of parallelly extending pipes adapted to be acted upon by air

A heat-exchanger with a bundle of parallelly extending pipes adapted to be acted upon by air which are constructed in the manner of heat pipes; a connection box extends transversely to the pipe bundle which surrounds section-wise the heat pipe hollow spaces of the pipe bundle and which is adapted to be traversed by a heat carrier medium; the connection box essentially consists of an extruded profile whose profile direction is disposed parallel to the pipe rows of the bundle and is provided at its end faces with guide covers which take over the distribution and deflection of the heat carrier medium toward the channels inside of the extruded profile.
