Abstract: The invention concerns a heat exchanger (1, 40) comprising: a first container body (2, 50); a first tube bundle (3, 57) arranged inside the first container body (2, 50); two tube plates (4, 51; 5, 52) for supporting the first tube bundle (3, 57); an evaporation chamber (2a) defined between the first container body (2, 50), the first tube bundle (3, 57) and the tube plates (4, 51; 5, 52); an inlet head (8, 53) and an outlet head (9, 54) communicating with each other through the first tube bundle (3, 57); an inlet way (10) and an outlet way (11) for the passage of a first fluid through the heads (8, 53; 9, 54) and the first tube bundle (3, 57); an inlet mouth (12) through which a second fluid flows into the evaporation chamber (2a). A superheating unit (20, 44) of the second fluid, associated with the first container body (2, 50), is provided.

Abstract: A plate heat exchanger, comprising a plurality of mutually facing plates that are hermetically coupled at at least one substantially peripheral portion and form at least two separate circuits for at least two fluids, each one of said plurality of plates having access ports that provide input ducts and output ducts for said at least two fluids, at least one portion of at least one face of at least one of said plurality of plates being uneven.
