Abstract:
A heat exchanger ( 20 ) has at least two connections ( 58, 62 ) for the inflow of operating media. In a first of the connections ( 62 ), an insert ( 68 ) is provided for distributing the operating media to two different zones ( 22, 26 ) of the heat exchanger ( 20 ). In the insert ( 68 ) is arranged a valve ( 70 ), which can be actuated by the operating medium flowing in via one of the connections ( 62 ) and which, in a closed position, the valve ( 70 ) separates the different zones ( 22, 26 ) of the heat exchanger ( 20 ), whereas in a not-closed position, the valve ( 70 ) eliminates the separation between the different zones ( 22, 26 ) of the heat exchanger ( 20 ).

Claim (Index 19):
A heat exchanger ( 20 ) comprising:\n a first connection through which a first flow of operating medium is conducted into the heat exchanger and a second connection through which a second flow of operating medium is conducted into the heat exchanger; an insert being arranged within the second connection for directing the first and the second flows of the operating medium to first and second cooling zones of the heat exchanger; a valve being arranged within the insert, the valve being actuatable between a closed position and an unclosed position based on either a pressure or a volume of the second flow of operating medium through the second connection; when the valve is in the closed position, the valve directs the first flow of operating medium from the first connection into the second cooling zone of the heat exchanger and directs the second flow of operating medium from the second connection into the first cooling zone of the heat exchanger; and when the valve is in the unclosed position, the valve directs the first flow of operating medium from the first connection into the first and the second cooling zones of the heat exchanger.
