Abstract: Heat exchanger, in particular condenser, comprises two parallel end closing plates (1, 2) having made a coolant inlet and outlet and at least one inlet and an outlet of the refrigerant. A heat exchange unit is provided between the closing plates (1, 2) and at least one coolant compartment and at least one refrigerant compartment, separated by an inner plate (5). The coolant compartments and, refrigerant compartments are arranged alternately and connected such that they form together with said inlets and outlets separated hydraulic circuits for the coolant and refrigerant and a turbulator panel (3, 4) is arranged in each of the compartments (3, 4). The turbulator panels (3) of the refrigerant circuit comprise on their surface first disturbing elements (9) the shape of which is matched to the physical properties of the gaseous refrigerant, and which determine the height of the turbulator panel of the refrigerant circuit, while the turbulator panels (4) of the coolant circuit comprise on their surface second disturbing elements (10) the shape of which is matched to the physical properties of the liquid coolant which determine the height of the turbulator panel of the coolant circuit, wherein the shape of the first disturbing elements (9) is different from the shape of the second disturbing elements (10). The shape of the turbulator panels (3, 4) is matched to the independent optimal managing, slowing down and disturbing of the refrigerant and the coolant, while ensuring a low pressure drop of their flow to achieve a high heat exchange coefficient.
