Abstract: A honeycomb body has sheet-metal layers and sheet-metal foils to be joined with brazing powder. Each of the foils has at least one sliding structure enabling the adjacent layers to slide over one another. A honeycomb body, particularly a catalyst carrier body for an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine, includes at least partially structured sheet-metal layers wound and/or stacked to form passages for fluid flow. The sheet-metal layers are at least partially joined to one another by the brazing powder. The honeycomb body also has at least one sheet-metal foil with at least one sliding structure. A process for producing the honeycomb body guarantees sharply delineated brazed joints, even for brazing powder, which results in a greatly increased lifespan, particularly with regard to thermal and dynamic loads placed on the honeycomb body when used as a catalyst carrier body in an exhaust system of an internal combustion engine.

Abstract: A device for evaporating a urea-water solution includes a delivery duct for the urea-water solution. The delivery duct extends through at least a first zone and a second zone for the introduction of heat energy. The zones can be heated separately from one another and, in the second zone, the delivery duct initially has a meandering course in a second inlet region, and thereafter has a rectilinear course. A method for evaporating a urea-water solution includes pre-heating the urea-water solution in the first zone to a temperature in a range from 100° C. to 150° C. and evaporating the urea-water solution in the second zone at a temperature in a range from 420° C. to 490° C. In particular, this significantly reduces the tendency for such an exhaust-gas-external evaporator for a urea-water solution to become blocked. A motor vehicle is also provided.
