The invention relates to an evaporator (V) comprising an evaporator body () surrounded by an evaporator housing () having an inlet () for supply of liquid into the evaporator housing () and an outlet () for discharge of vapour generated, wherein the evaporator body () comprises a multitude of plates () arranged flat one on top of another, wherein there is a liquid distributor () for distributing the liquid between the multitude of plates () arranged between the inlet () and the evaporator body (), wherein each of the plates () comprises, on a first surface, a liquid distributor structure () with distributor conduits (), an evaporator area () and a gas collection structure (). The invention further relates to a corresponding fuel cell arrangement.

Evaporator and fuel cell arrangement

The invention relates to a heat exchanger having at least one sorption duct in which is arranged a sorption medium and through which a fluid can be made to flow, characterized in that the heat exchanger also contains at least one catalyst with which a fuel can be converted exothermically such that at least some of the resulting heat can be conveyed to the sorption medium. The invention also relates to a method for heating and/or conditioning a gas stream, having at least the following steps: supplying a gas stream, containing multiple different components, into a sorption duct in which is arranged a sorption medium, such that at least one component is bound in the sorption medium, and supplying and exothermically converting at least one fuel under the action of a catalyst, such that at least one component of the gas stream is expelled from the sorption medium.
