Abstract
A fluid circulation apparatus comprises a body part (2) in the shape of a dihedron with, on a first face of the dihedron, at least one opening for input/output of this fluid covering over the opening in a leaktight way. The bulb projects with respect to the body part (2) beyond the edge (13) of the dihedron and is produced by combination of metal sheets, of cylindrical, spherical and/or ellipsoidal shape, welded to one another. The apparatus is applicable to the integration of phase separators with heat exchangers of the brazed-plate type or alternatively to the input/output of fluids in such exchangers.
