Therefore, even if a factor that damages the plate heat exchanger 30 should occur, the plate 32a of the first heat transfer plate 32 faces the second pitch 40b rather than the position facing the first pitch 40a. The position where you are is easily damaged.
  • the plate heat exchanger 30 has a double wall structure only in the first heat transfer plate 32. Therefore, the plate heat exchanger 30 has a function that the plate 32a at the position facing the second pitch 40b is easily damaged in comparison with the plate 32a at the position facing the first pitch 40a, and heat is generated. The resistance can be further suppressed and the heat exchange performance can be improved.

You may. Even in this case, the plate heat exchanger 30 has a great influence on the function that the plate 32a at the position facing the second pitch 40b is easily damaged in comparison with the plate 32a at the position facing the first pitch 40a. I will not give it.

Abstract

L'échangeur de chaleur à plaques de l'invention comprend un corps principal dans lequel une pluralité de plaques de transfert de chaleur est empilée, et un premier trajet d'écoulement, à travers lequel s'écoule un premier fluide, et un second trajet d'écoulement, à travers lequel s'écoule un second fluide, sont alternativement formés avec les plaques de transfert de chaleur servant de bordures. Le corps principal forme le premier trajet d'écoulement entre une première plaque de transfert de chaleur et une seconde plaque de transfert de chaleur, et comporte une ailette interne dans le premier trajet d'écoulement. La première plaque de transfert de chaleur comporte deux plaques et une pluralité de sections brasées pour relier les deux plaques. Une pluralité de sections creuses et un trajet de communication, pour relier les sections creuses de la pluralité de sections creuses les unes aux autres, sont formés à l'intérieur de la première plaque de transfert de chaleur. L'ailette interne présente, dans le sens de l'écoulement, une pluralité de pas d'évidement et de saillie formée en évidement et en saillie. Au moins un ou plusieurs des pas d'évidement et de saillie présentent un premier pas qui vient en butée contre la première plaque de transfert de chaleur et la seconde plaque de transfert de chaleur, et un second pas qui vient en butée contre la seconde plaque de transfert de chaleur et qui est plus grand que le premier pas. Lorsque l'intérieur du corps principal est projeté dans la direction d'empilage, la pluralité de sections creuses est formée dans la région du second pas, et un trajet d'écoulement d'évacuation, formé par la pluralité de sections creuses et le trajet de communication, est configuré pour communiquer avec l'extérieur du corps.
