Publication number: 20230392881Abstract: A heat exchanger plate module comprises a pressed heat exchanger plate and a flat plate, and a heat exchanger comprises plural of the modules. The plates comprise first and second longitudinal end portions each having a fluid port, and an intermediate heat exchange portion between the first and second longitudinal end portions. The plates further include a pressed corrugated pattern with alternating tops and bottoms in the thickness direction. The pressed pattern comprises in the first and/or second longitudinal end portions, a first fluid channel pattern leading fluid flow into the fluid port and/or a second fluid channel pattern bypassing the fluid port. In the intermediate heat exchange portion, a third fluid channel pattern fluidly communicates with the first and/or second fluid channel pattern and comprises longitudinally extending wave-shaped pressed lines that form discrete longitudinal extending fluid channels, when the pressed heat exchanger plate is attached to the flat plate.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 11, 2021Publication date: December 7, 2023Applicant: ALFA LAVAL CORPORATE ABInventors: Fredrik STRÖMER, Håkan LARSSON, Arne BORG, Mats NILSSON, Henrik KOCKUM
