Abstract

A plate heat exchanger includes a plate package having first and second heat exchanger plates. The plates are joined to each other and arranged side by side so that a first plate interspace exists between each pair of adjacent first and second heat exchanger plates, and a second plate interspace is formed between each pair of adjacent second and first heat exchanger plates. The first and the second plate interspaces are separated from each other and provided side by side in an alternating order. Substantially each heat exchanger plate has at least a first porthole forming a first inlet channel to the first plate interspaces. At least two injectors are arranged in a wall portion of the first inlet channel and extend from the exterior of the plate package to the first inlet channel interior, and each injector supplies a fluid to more than one of the first plate interspaces.
