Claim:
1. A stacked plate heat exchanger, comprising: a plurality of elongated plates stacked on top of and connected to one another, with pairs of adjacent elongated plates each defining a single cavity in a longitudinal direction between base plates of each pair of the elongated plates, wherein in each of two end regions of each elongated plate a through hole is arranged for passing a medium to be cooled into the single cavity, each through hole being at least partially surrounded at its perimeter by a respective dome, wherein each respective dome abuts an edge of the respective elongated plate, said edge being defined by a meeting of a rim and a respective base plate, wherein each base plate extends between the two end regions of each respective elongated plate; wherein each respective dome extends along a space between the respective rim and the perimeter of the respective through hole, and each dome abuts directly with a dome of a neighboring plate, and contacts the dome of the neighboring plate over; wherein each dome includes radially extending structures that separate a plurality of holes that define each perimeter, and the plurality of holes supply a coolant and fill the space between the respective perimeter and the respective rim; wherein each base plate lies in a respective first plane, each through hole lies in a respective second plane, the plurality of holes in each dome lie in a respective third plane, the respective first plane is between the respective second plane and the respective third plane, and the domes abut one another at their rims.
