Original Abstract Submitted

A heat exchange plate includes a coolant layer, a refrigerant layer, a first end portion, and a second end portion opposite to the first end portion. The refrigerant layer includes a refrigerant input portion disposed at the first end portion, a refrigerant output portion disposed at the first end portion, a first refrigerant flow path connected to the refrigerant input portion, a second refrigerant flow path connected to the refrigerant output portion, and a connection portion connecting the first and second refrigerant flow paths. The first refrigerant flow path includes a first branch portion, a first converging portion, and a plurality of first branch flow paths connecting the first branch portion and the first converging portion, and the second refrigerant flow path includes a second branch portion, a second converging portion, and a plurality of second branch flow paths connecting the second branch portion and the second converging portion.
