Zusammenfassung:Method and apparatus for moving a conditioning fluid, e.g. defrost gas, through a plate fin type heat exchanger having open-ended passages containing easyway or hardway finning. Each group of open-ended passages is provided with means to introduce the fluid into the passages at a location to achieve maximum contact of the fluid with each open-ended passage. A downflow reboiler according to the invention can be readily conditioned (e.g. defrosted).
