A heat exchanger (10) is manufactured from a single piece of heat-conducting material and comprises fins (20) for guiding a fluid and for transferring heat between the fluid and the heat exchanger, wherein between the fins are provided transverse fins (24) which extend in a direction substantially transversely of the fins over a distance which is less than the distance between the fins and in a direction substantially transversely of the flow direction of the fluid, wherein the transverse fins are arranged alternately close to or on mutually adjacent fins in order to cause a fluid flowing between the fins to follow a meandering path between the fins, wherein the lateral direction lies substantially perpendicularly of the fins. |
