An air cooler comprises at least one tubular element with an inside surface which defines a passage for air which is to be cooled in the air cooler. At least one heat-conducting element is fastened inside the passage and is shaped to divide the passage into a plurality of flow paths between the inlet and the outlet of the passage. A medium at a lower temperature than the air to be cooled in the air cooler flows in contact with an outside surface of the tubular element cooling the air in the air cooler as the air is led through the passage. The heat-conducting element is sized such that it occupies only part of the cross-section of the passage in the direction of flow of the medium, thereby forming in a remaining portion of the passage in the direction of flow of the medium an elongate duct between the inlet and the outlet of the passage. The duct has a larger cross-sectional area than the cross-sectional areas of the respective flow paths between the inlet and the outlet of the passage which are formed by the heat-conducting element. |
