Abstract: A heat exchanger module with a longitudinal axis including a stack of plates defining at least two fluid circuits, at least a portion of the plates each including fluid circulation channels each delimited, at least in part, by a groove. A communication is produced between the channels within a same plate and between all the plates of a same circuit, in a feed or pre-collector zone, with a succession of channel groupings, two-by-two, in the form of bifurcations.

Abstract: A heat exchanger for exchanging heat between two fluids, use of the exchanger with liquid metal and gas, and application to a fast neutron nuclear reactor cooled with liquid metal. The present invention concerns a heat exchanger (1) for exchanging heat between a first fluid (N2) and a second fluid (Na). According to the invention, the structure of the heat exchanger makes it possible to supply and recover the primary fluid, such as sodium (Na), to and from a given longitudinal end (2a) opposite the longitudinal end (2b) by which the secondary fluid, such as nitrogen (N2), is supplied and recovered. This allows a physical separation between the paths of the two fluids in the exchanger, with the possibility, in particular, of having restricted access for one of the fluids, such as sodium (Na) and non-restricted access for the other of the fluids, such as nitrogen (N2).
