Heat exchanger plate, heat exchanger plate laminate, and microchannel heat exchanger

Abstract

A first heat exchanger plate includes: an inlet header formed by a first opening; an outlet header formed by a second opening; and a plurality of partition walls disposed between the inlet header and the outlet header so as to partition a flow path for a fluid from the inlet header toward the outlet header into a plurality of parallel flow paths. At least one partition wall among the plurality of partition walls includes at least one notch. A pair of the parallel flow paths on both sides of the partition wall having the notch connect with each other via the notch. A first distance between the inlet header and the at least one notch in a flow direction of the fluid is less than a second distance between the outlet header and the at least one notch in the flow direction.
