Abstract
An evaporator unit in the form of a plate construction has evaporation spaces and heat transfer medium spaces respectively arranged between successive plates. The plates have an essentially circular construction and have recesses for forming inflow and outflow lines for the medium to be evaporated and for a heat transfer medium which extend perpendicularly to the plates. The inflow line for the medium to be evaporated is arranged in the area of the center of the circular plates. The outflow lines for the evaporated medium and for the heat transfer medium are arranged in the circumferential area of the circular plates. For the heat transfer medium, several inflow lines can be provided at a radial distance from the center of the circular plates between the inflow line and the outflow lines for the medium to be evaporated.
