Patent number: 8776371Abstract: The invention refers to a method of brazing together thin heat exchanging plates of an iron based base material provided with port holes and a pressing pattern of elevations and depressions over the heat exchanging area of the plates and, if present, also over the distribution area to a plate heat exchanger. The plates are coated with brazing material and are arranged such that contact between elevations and depressions in adjacent plates is obtained prior to the brazing together. The plates are then brazed together at the resultant contact points. Only 5-40%, preferably 10-30%, of the heat exchanging area and the distribution area are coated with brazing material prior to the brazing.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2007Date of Patent: July 15, 2014Assignee: Alfa Laval Corporate ABInventors: Jens Erik Johannes Rassmus, Per Erik Sjodin
