Air To Air Heat Exchanger
There are a number of types of heat exchanger that can be used in Heat recovery ventilation-HRV devices:
- cross flow heat exchanger up to 60% efficient (passive)
- Recuperator, or cross plate heat exchanger, a countercurrent heat exchanger, as diagrammed to the right
- Thermal Wheel, or rotary heat exchanger (requires motor to turn wheel)
- Heat pipe
- thin multiple heat wires (Fine wire heat exchanger)
- See also:
- Shell and tube heat exchanger
- Plate heat exchanger
- Plate fin heat exchanger
- Ground-coupled heat exchanger
- Dynamic scraped surface heat exchanger
- Waste Heat Recovery Unit
- Micro heat exchanger
- Moving bed heat exchanger

Famous quotes containing the words air, heat and/or exchanger:
“But not luck
brought us here. By design
clear air and cold wind polish
the river lights, by design
we are to live now in a new place.”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
“For my part, when I enter most intimately into what I call myself, I always stumble on some particular perception or other, of heat or cold, light or shade, love or hatred, pain or pleasure. I never can catch myself at any time without a perception, and never can observe anything but the perception.”
—David Hume (1711–1776)
“I want to know whether you are a person devoted to creating or to exchanging in some respect or other: as a creator you belong to the free, as an exchanger you are their slave and instrument.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
