The at least one manifold may have a hollow space through which a fluid is flowable. The at least one manifold may include a bottom and a plurality of tank receptacles for receiving the plurality of heat exchanger tubes. The plurality of tank receptacles may be disposed in the bottom spaced apart from one another in a longitudinal direction and may extend in a transverse direction, which extends transverse to the longitudinal direction. In a height direction extending transverse to the longitudinal direction and transverse to the transverse direction, directed away from the hollow space, the bottom may have at least one curvature directed to an outside.
