ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to an open-surface component for transferring heat and/or material between a gas and a liquid that are conveyed in crosscurrent and/or countercurrent flows, comprising a plurality of panels (1) that are disposed next to one another and are provided with shaped portions (2) in the form of channels or channel portions for guiding the aforementioned fluid flows through, with the channel or channel portions enabling a spreading out, transverse to the directions of the main flows, of the respective fluid flows between two adjacent panels (1). In order at relatively low pressure drops to enable a high transfer capacity of the open-surface component, the panels (1) that are provided with channel-like shaped portions (2) are additionally provided with a shaping transverse to the two main dimensional directions of the panels (1), and in particular preferably via a semicircular, sinusoidal, or serpentine wavy configuration.
