Abstract

A heat transfer plate comprises a first end area, a heat transfer area and a second end area along a longitudinal center axis of the plate which divides the plate into first and second halves delimited by first and second long sides respectively. The first end area comprises an inlet port hole, a distribution area and a transition area. The transition area adjoins the distribution area and the heat transfer area. The distribution area has a distribution pattern of projections and depressions, the transition area has a transition pattern of projections and depressions, and the heat transfer area has a heat transfer pattern of projections and depressions. An imaginary straight line extends between two end points of each transition projection with an angle relative to the longitudinal center axis. The angle varies between the transition projections and increases from the first long side to the second long side.
