A converter includes a housing having a first interior and a second interior. The first interior is arranged separately from the second interior. Part of the first interior protrudes into the second interior and forms a heat-exchanger duct. A gaseous heat flow circuit is established within the first interior and flows in through an inlet opening of the heat-exchanger duct and flows out through an outlet opening of the heat-exchanger duct. The second interior forms a cooling duct. A gaseous cooling flow flowing through the cooling duct is established and flows around the heat-exchanger duct. The cooling duct is arranged in a region of overlap with the heat-exchanger duct in such a way that a first flow direction of the gaseous heat flow circuit runs substantially perpendicularly or parallel to a second flow direction of the gaseous cooling flow.
