Abstract (en)

A gas-liquid plate heat exchanger (1) comprises a stack of alternating first heat transfer plates (2) and second heat transfer plates (3) interposed between opposite exterior panels (4,5). The first heat transfer plates (2) and the second heat transfer plates (3) have respective aligned first liquid inlet openings (17) and second liquid inlet openings (19) and aligned first liquid outlet openings (18) and second liquid outlet openings (20). The first heat transfer plate (2) has a first surface pattern (44) on a first face (6), and a first opposite face (7), and an adjacent second heat transfer plate (3) has a second surface pattern (45) on a second face (9), and a second opposite face (10). The second face (9) faces the first opposite face (7) and the second surface pattern (44) is different from the first surface pattern (45). A liquid flow space (12) is delimited between the first face (6) and the second opposite face (10) by the first surface pattern (44). A gas flow space (13) is delimited between the second face (9) and the first opposite face (7) by the second surface pattern (45). The liquid flow space (12) and the gas flow space (13) are kept sealed from each other by forcing the opposite exterior panels (4,5) towards each other by means of clamping means (46,47) .
