Abstract

See full text

A steam generator (1) is provided for a Rankine cycle, especially for a waste heat recovery device (37) of an internal combustion engine (36), and preferably in a motor vehicle. The steam generator includes: a heat exchanger channel (2), in which a heat exchanger (3) is arranged, and a bypass channel (4) for bypassing the heat exchanger channel (2). A heating fluid can flow through the heat exchanger channel (2) and bypass channel (4) during the operation of the steam generator (1). A medium to be evaporated can flow through the heat exchanger (3) during operation of the steam generator (1). A compact structural shape with high energy efficiency is achieved with the heat exchanger channel (2) enveloping the bypass channel (4).
