The correct answer is (a) Pillow plate exchangers

The explanation: Lamella plate heat exchanger is called as modified floating-head shell-and-tube exchanger. One fluid flows inside the lamella whereas the other flows longitudinally in the spaces between them. There are no baffles on the shell side. The flow arrangement is generally counter flow.
