Abstract: A plate heat exchanger comprising a top head, a bottom head, four side panels and four corner girders. The side panels and the corner girders extend along a longitudinal direction from the bottom head to the top head, and each side panel is associated with two corner girders. The top head, the bottom head, the four side panels and the four corner girders are joined together to form a sealed enclosure for housing a plate pack of stacked heat-exchanging plates. A continuous gasket assembly is arranged in a contact region between at least one side panel and two corner girders, the top head and the bottom head. The gasket assembly is located in a groove. Moreover, the gasket assembly is a segmented gasket assembly composed of plural gasket segments, and each gasket segment is made of graphite material. Also disclosed is a method for assembling such a plate heat exchanger.

Abstract: A baffle support and a baffle for a block-type heat exchanger. The baffle support comprises a base plate extending in a first direction and a transverse second direction. The baffle support comprises a first pair and a second pair of projections extending from the front surface of the base plate to engage the baffle. The first pair of projections is located further in the first direction than the second pair of projections. The baffle comprises a mounting member at each transverse edge of a baffle plate. Each mounting member comprises at least one stop surface) facing a first longitudinal edge of the baffle plate. A baffle assembly comprising two baffle supports and a baffle.

Abstract: A heat exchanger, having a circular housing having a first and a second end plate (6, 7), where the first end plate is provided with an inlet port (2) and the first or the second end plate is provided with an outlet port (3), and further having a plurality of corrugated heat exchanger plates (10, 11) having ridges (12) and grooves (13), where the heat exchanger plates are fixedly attached to each other, such that a first flow channel is created between the heat exchanger plates, and where the heat exchanger further has a plurality of compensation plates (20) positioned between the heat exchanger plates and at least one of the end plates. The advantage of this heat exchanger is that it reduces the stress imposed on the inlet and outlet regions of the heat exchanger due to thermal cycling.
