1-11. (canceled)
A heat exchanger, comprising:
- a heat exchanger tube for guiding a first medium in its interior;
- and at least one connection for a second medium, wherein a region around the heat exchanger tube is provided by an open-pored material into which the second medium can enter.
A method for producing a heat exchanger according to claim 1-2 having a heat exchanger tube for guiding a first medium in its interior, and at least one connection for a second medium, the method comprising the steps of:
- providing a heat exchanger tube in a mold or chamber, whcrcin the;
- and introducing a material, which is open-pored at least in a use state, is introduccd into the mold or chamber to provide a region around the heat exchanger tube into which the second medium can enter.
A method for refueling a vehicle with a gas, comprising guiding gas from a gas storage to a delivery nozzle that is able to cooperate with the vehicle, wherein the gas, for cooling purposes, is guided through a heat exchanger arranged between the gas storage and the delivery nozzle, wherein the gas is guided through a heat-conducting tube of the heat exchanger and is thereby cooled.
