A heat transfer plate comprises a first end area, a heat transfer area and a second end area along a longitudinal center axis of the plate which divides the plate into first and second halves delimited by first and second long sides respectively. The first end area comprises an inlet port hole, a distribution area and a transition area. The transition area adjoins the distribution area and the heat transfer area. The distribution area has a distribution pattern of projections and depressions, the transition area has a transition pattern of projections and depressions, and the heat transfer area has a heat transfer pattern of projections and depressions. An imaginary straight line extends between two end points of each transition projection with an angle relative to the longitudinal center axis. The angle varies between the transition projections and increases from the first long side to the second long side.

A heat exchanger includes: a cooler/heater, an evaporator and a condensate separator, provided with inlet lines and outlet lines through which flows develop in countercurrent to each other for obtaining through the cooler/heater an incoming flow of hot and humid air and an outgoing flow of cooled cold air. The cooler/heater, the evaporator and the condensate separator are independent units from each other joined by a connection for defining a single-block body on whose outer surface inlet lines and outlet lines are provided. A first conduit places in communication the outlet line with the second inlet line; a second conduit places in communication the first outlet line with the first inlet line; and a third conduit places in communication the first outlet line with the first inlet line. The conduits project from the outer surface that delimits the single-block body.

A stacked-plate heat exchanger may include a plurality of stacked plates that are stacked one on top of another in a stacking direction to form a first fluid channel and a second fluid channel through which a first fluid and a second fluid are flowable.

The plurality of stacked plates may also include a plurality of through-openings that form distribution channels and collection channels. The heat exchanger may also include a first stacked plate arranged between the first end plate and a second stacked plate, the second stacked plate connected to the first end plate and first stacked plate by an integral connection.

A heat exchanger unit is utilized for heating service water in a heating installation. The unit includes a plate heat exchanger a first connector, attached to a first fluid connection point of the heat exchanger, and a second connector, fastened to the heat exchanger. The first and second connectors each include at least one base element. The base element of the first connector and the base element of the second connector have an identical configuration. Each base element includes at least two distinct flow ducts.

A heat exchanger having multiple plates which are mutually parallel and parallel to a longitudinal direction, the exchanger having a length measured in the longitudinal direction, the plates being stacked with spacing so as to define a first series of passages for the flow, in a general flow direction parallel to the longitudinal direction, of at least a first refrigerant fluid and a second refrigerant fluid, at least one passage of the first series being defined between two adjacent plates.

The present invention provides a tri-piece thermal energy body heat exchanger having multi-layer pipeline and transferring heat to exterior through outer periphery of pipeline, which is configured by multiple layers of pipelines sleeved with each other, the fluid in the outer layer pipeline covers the inner layer pipeline for exchanging heat with the fluid in the inner layer pipeline, and the fluid in the outer layer pipeline is further used for transferring heat to the solid or fluid state thermal energy body which is in contact with the outer periphery of the outer layer pipeline, thereby forming a three-layer annular tri-piece thermal energy body heat exchanger.

A manifold for a heat exchanger assembly includes a body with a first end disposed opposite a second end, and a top surface disposed opposite a bottom surface. A first side surface extends between the top and bottom surfaces, and a second side surface extends between the top and bottom surfaces opposite the first side surface. A first plurality of chambers is formed in the body with each chamber of the first plurality of chambers being spaced apart from one another between the first end and the second end of the body. A second plurality of chambers is formed in the body with each chamber of the second plurality of chambers being spaced apart from one another between the first end and the second end of the body.

A stacked type fluid heater includes a first low temperature layer with low temperature side flow passages into which target medium to be heated is introduced, a first high temperature layer with high temperature side flow passages into which heating medium for heating the target medium to be heated is introduced, a second high temperature layer with high temperature side flow passages into which the heating medium is introduced. The target medium has a temperature lower than the freezing point of the heating medium. The first high temperature layer includes the high temperature side flow passages located adjacent each other via a metal material of the first high temperature layer. The high temperature side flow passages of the first high temperature layer and those of the second high temperature layer are adjacent each other via a metal material of the second high temperature layer.
