A heat transfer plate that has a base plate; a fluid distribution plate that is arranged on a first end section of the base plate, and a fluid collection plate that is arranged on a second end section of the base plate, the fluid distribution plate comprising a base edge that faces a heat transfer section of the base plate, a distal part that is located at a distance from the base edge, a fluid passage edge that comprises an extension in a direction from the base edge, towards the distal part, a closed edge that comprises an extension in the direction from the base edge, towards the distal part, and fluid distribution channels that extend from the fluid passage edge to the base edge, for leading fluid from the fluid passage edge to the heat transfer section.

Heat transfer plate and plate heat exchanger

The heat exchanger plate presents first adjacent first corrugations generally directed along respective alignment axes in the longitudinal direction of the plate and comprising successive segments that are substantially rectilinear and oblique, being successively inclined in a first sense and in a second sense relative to the longitudinal axis. The heat exchanger plate also has at least one deformation zone constituted by at least one set of segments of second corrugations of generally transverse direction intersecting the set of longitudinal axes along which the first corrugations are disposed. The alignment axes of the segments of second corrugations make an angle lying in the range 45&#xb0; to 90&#xb0; with the longitudinal axes of the first corrugations.
