1. A heat exchanger plate configured to delimit at least one channel for circulation of a fluid, the heat exchanger plate comprising:
a bottom and a raised rim that surrounds the bottom; and
at least one opening through which the fluid enters the at least one channel,
wherein the at least one opening is delimited by an at least partially rectilinear edge,
wherein the at least partially rectilinear edge forms a first edge that extends in a direction that forms an angle of between 30 and 60 degrees with respect to a longitudinal direction of the heat exchanger plate,
and wherein the bottom comprises a rib arranged such that the channel has a U-shaped profile.
