Abstract (en)

[origin: EP3978856A1] The present invention includes: a heat exchanger body including a plurality of heat transfer plates stacked on each other in a certain direction to form a plurality of first flow channels; and a distributor to allow a first fluid medium to be distributed. The plurality of heat transfer plates respectively have through holes at positions corresponding to each other. The through holes are lined up to form a communicating space communicating with the plurality of first flow channels. The distributor has a tubular wall defining a hollow portion and including a plurality of tubular portions overlapped with each other in their thickness direction. The tubular wall has a distributing flow channel in two or more of the plurality of tubular portions. The distributing flow channel includes: a distributing portion allowing the first fluid medium that has flown through the hollow portion to be distributed to one side and an other side in the certain direction; and a plurality of outflow portions each communicating with the one side and the other side of the distributing portion and communicating with the communicating space or the plurality of first flow channels.
