Abstract

A mixing and/or evaporating device (12) for an exhaust system (5) of a combustion engine (1), in particular of a motor vehicle, includes a support body which encloses a cross section of the device (12) through which a flow can flow and which runs transversely to the axial direction (20) of the device (12) in the circumferential direction. The support body (19) has at least one guide blade (25, 28) which extends away transversely to the axial direction (20). An improved efficiency is obtained with the guide blade (25) having a roof-shaped profile (29), including two guide surfaces (30, 31) that are interconnected via a ridge (32) or apex.
