Abstract:
1. A heat exchanger having a plurality of fine flow channels comprising: a first laminating plate, a second laminating plate, which constitutes liquid feeding pipes arranged of either side of the second laminating plate, a plurality of first thin plate members, each first thin plate member being formed with a first void in a middle of the first thin plate member, which defines a respective fine flow channel, a plurality of second thin plate members, each second thin plate member constituting a first partitioning wall in a middle of the second thin plate member and defining a respective fine flow channel on either side of the first partitioning wall, a plurality of third thin plate members, each third thin plate member being formed with a second void in a middle of the third thin plate member, which defines a respective fine flow channel, and an introduction flow path, being formed on both sides of the second void between an outer edge of the third thin plate member and the second void, a plurality of fourth thin plate members, each fourth thin plate member constituting a second partitioning wall in a middle of the fourth thin plate member, defining a respective fine flow channel on either side of the second partitioning wall, and the introduction flow path, being formed on both sides of the second partitioning wall between an outer edge of the fourth thin plate member and the second partitioning wall, wherein: the introduction flow path guides the liquid flow from one of the liquid feeding pipes into the heat exchanger, and then guides the liquid flow to an area that is a substantially center portion of the heat exchanger, the plurality of first thin plate members and the plurality of second thin plate members are bonded by diffusion bonding alternately to form alternating first thin plate members and second thin plate members, and the alternating first thin plate members and second thin plate members, including the first partitioning walls, are disposed in a direction perpendicular to the liquid feeding pipes, the plurality of third thin plate members and the plurality of fourth thin plate members are bonded by diffusion bonding alternately to form alternating third thin plate members and fourth thin plate members, and the alternating third thin plate members and fourth thin plate members, including the second partitioning walls, are disposed in a direction perpendicular to the liquid feeding pipes, the alternating first thin plate members and second thin plate members are disposed on the first laminating plate, the alternating third thin plate members and fourth thin plate members are disposed on the alternating first thin plate members and second thin plate members, and the second laminating plate is disposed on the alternating third thin plate members and fourth thin plate members.
