A stacked-plate heat exchanger may include a plurality of stacked plates. The plurality of stacked plates may include a plurality of first stacked plates and a plurality of second stacked plates stacked alternately one on top of another. Pairs of adjacent stacked plates may each delimit one of a first cavity for the passage of a first fluid and a second cavity for the passage of a second fluid in an alternating manner. The heat exchanger may also include a support structure that may support the plurality of stacked plates in an edge region to stabilize the second cavity. The plurality of stacked plates may each include a first opening and at least two second openings arranged around the first opening. The heat exchanger may also include a plurality of webs each arranged between two adjacent second openings. The plurality of webs may form the support structure.

Stacked-plate heat exchanger

A stacked-plate heat exchanger may include a plurality of stacked plates. The plurality of stacked plates may include a plurality of first stacked plates and a plurality of second stacked plates stacked alternately one on top of another. Pairs of adjacent stacked plates may each delimit one of a first cavity for the passage of a first fluid and a second cavity for the passage of a second fluid in an alternating manner. The heat exchanger may also include a support structure that may support the plurality of stacked plates in an edge region to stabilize the second cavity. The plurality of stacked plates may each include a first opening and at least two second openings arranged around the first opening. The heat exchanger may also include a plurality of webs arranged between the at least two second openings. The plurality of webs may define the support structure.

A stacked-plate heat exchanger may include a first stacked-plate pack and a second stacked-plate pack. Each pack may have a plurality of stacked plates placed side by side and connected to one another, and a base plate via which at least one of inflow and outflow of a coolant may take place. The first and second stacked-plate packs may be connected to one another with the base plates lying against one another. The stacked-plate heat exchanger may also include a holder that holds the first and second stacked-plate packs exclusively on the two base plates. The first and second stacked-plate packs may each be directly connected to at least one of a coolant inlet and a coolant outlet via the respective base plates.

An exhaust gas cooler may include a plurality of stacked disc pairs. A first flow chamber for a coolant flow may be disposed between two discs of at least a first disc pair of the plurality of disc pairs. A second flow chamber for an exhaust gas flow may be disposed between two second disc pairs of the plurality of disc pairs arranged mutually adjacent with respect to one another. The plurality of stacked disc pairs may include at least one coolant inlet and at least one coolant outlet. The first disc pair may include a plurality of coolant inlets and a plurality of coolant outlets surrounding an edge of the first disc pair to facilitate peripheral edge cooling.

Exhaust gas cooler

An exhaust gas cooler may include an outer housing and an inner housing having a heat exchanger insert arranged therein. The heat exchanger insert may include a plurality of pipes around which exhaust gas flows transversely in the inner housing and through at least some of which a coolant of a first cooling circuit flows. At least a portion of the outer housing may be cooled by a second cooling circuit. The second cooling circuit may be separate from the first cooling circuit.
