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 efciency. The corrugation of the plates
provides the passage between the plates, supports each
plate against the adjacent one and enhances the turbulence,
resulting in efcient heat transfer.
