Abstract
A heat exchanger with at least one main tube, closed off at one end, into which compressed air, which is to be heated, is admitted and, after being heated, is removed. The main tube has at least two channel guideways which are separated from one another in the longitudinal direction. U-shaped or curved compressed air lines project from the main tube and contact the hot gases. Each compressed air line is connected at one end to the channel guideway of the main tube into which compressed air is admitted, and at its other end with the channel guideway through which the heated compressed air is removed. The compressed air lines are formed primarily from hollow bodies, which extend in the direction of flow of the hot gas and which preferably are tapered at the inflow and outflow ends in order to aid the flow.
