Abstract
A heat exchanger plate includes one or more heat exchanger sections, each of which has an inlet and outlet. The heat exchanger sections flow one or more heat exchanger fluids therein in a first direction from the inlet to the outlet. The heat exchanger plate includes one or more process flow channels, each of which has a channel inlet point and a channel outlet point defining a line oriented in a second direction. The second direction is at an angle of ninety degrees relative to the first direction. The process flow channel is configured to flow a process fluid therein or thereon and has a serpentine configuration. The heat exchanger plate includes a temperature sensor. The heat exchanger plate includes a regulating valve positioned in each heat exchanger outlet and is configured to regulate flow of the heat exchanger fluid in response to a signal received from the temperature sensor.
