MUMBAI, India, Sept. 22 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202617077926 A) filed by Alfa Laval Corporate Ab on June 24, 2026, for Heat Transfer Plate, Cassette And Heat Exchanger.

Inventors include Nilsson, Johan; and Blomgren, Fredrik.

The application for the patent was published on September 18, 2026, under issue no. 38/2026.

Abstract: A heat transfer plate (8, 8a), a cassette (57) and a heat exchanger (2) are provided. The heat transfer plate (8, 8a) comprises an upper distribution area (44), an upper transition area (45) and a heat transfer area (46) provided 5 with a heat transfer corrugation pattern, a distribution corrugation pattern and a transition corrugation pattern, respectively. The transition corrugation pattern comprises tops (60) extending in an imaginary top plane (TP) facing the front side (30) of the heat transfer plate (8, 8a) and bottoms (62) extending in an imaginary bottom plane (BP) facing the back side (32) of the heat transfer plate 0 (8, 8a). A bottom pitch (bp) between the bottoms (62) is essentially constant within more than 50% of the upper transition area (45). The heat transfer plate (8, 8a) is characterized in that a respective largest back cross section (BC) of a back corrugation volume (BV) between each two adjacent ones of the bottoms (62) and enclosed by the bottom plane (BP) and the heat transfer plate (8, 8a), 5 which back cross section (BC) is taken perpendicular to a longitudinal extension (lt) of the top (60) extending between said two adjacent ones of the bottoms (62), is varying.
