Abstract

A plate (32) for a commercial size plate style heat exchanger utilizes micro-channels (25) in the flow paths (28) of the working media thereby greatly increasing the surface area to volume ratio and inducing laminar flow in the working media. This provides greater heat transfer capabilities and reduced pressure losses, resulting in an increased overall heat exchanger efficiency. The structure of the micro-channel plate heat exchanger is based on stacked micro-channel plates (32) that have been rotated 90 degrees with respect to each other.
