5.3. Plates
APV heat exchanger plates come in multiple sizes and corrugation patterns. This allows
the heat exchanger to be matched closely to a specific duty. The corrugations cause
turbulence in the liquids as they flow in a thin stream in the passage between each plate
(Figure 7). The plates have ports in each corner that, when arranged in a plate pack,
form a manifold for even fluid distribution to the individual plate passages (Figure 8).
