Working principle
Channels are formed between the plates and the corner ports
are arranged so that the two media ow through alternate
channels. The heat is transferred through the plate between
the channels, and complete counter-current ow is created
for highest possible efciency. The corrugation of the plates
provides the passage between the plates, supports each
plate against the adjacent one and enhances the turbulence,
resulting in efcient heat transfer.
