Abstract
The present disclosure describes a heat exchanger of a motor vehicle that is supplied with a cooling air mass flow that changes depending on a travelling speed of the motor vehicle. The heat exchanger includes a heat exchanger block with a plurality of flat tubes that are each received on a longitudinal end side in an associated passage opening of a tube sheet and provide a coolant path. A tank is connected to the tube sheet and defines a coolant header. An additional element is arranged on an outer edge or on an outer marginal region of the tube sheet. The additional element is structured and arranged to provide an at least partial covering of the tube sheet relative to an inflow side, e.g., relative to the cooling air mass flow.
