A heat transfer plate for a plate heat exchanger has a first port portion
(A), a second port portion (B), and a heat transfer portion, which is
disposed between the port portions (A, B). The first port portion (A) has
a first vapor inlet port (1) which is intended for a first fluid in vapor
form and which extends over essentially the whole width of the plate. The
second port portion (B) has at least one first outlet port (2), which is
intended for condensed vapor. The first port portion (A) has a second
outlet port (4), which is disposed between the vapor inlet port (1) and
the second port portion (B) and which is intended for a second fluid. The
second port portion (B) has a second inlet port (3), which is intended
for the second fluid.
