ABSTRACT:
A plate heat exchanger assembly having a plurality of corrugated metal members between two end cover metal members and interspaced with gasket members. The corrugated metal members have corrugations establishing a network of contact points and forming turbulent channels for heat exchange between two fluids flowing counter-currently in and out through at least four ports. Each of the corrugated metal members, end cover metal members and gasket members have at least four corner portholes in alignment with corresponding portholes. Each gasket member has two through portholes and two communicating portholes. Clamping means pass through each aligned porthole for clamping each of the four ports on either side of the plate heat exchanger assembly to bind individual ports. The clamping means have end connections and openings at predetermined positions and communicate with desired channels having flow through medians provided around inlet and outlet porthole portions permitting flow of fluids in and out while sealing adjacent channels 360 degrees all around at each port against intermixing.
