Heat Recovery Ventilation - Air To Air Heat Exchanger

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 to, air, heat and/or exchanger:

    Speak the speech, I pray you, as I pronounced it to you—trippingly on the tongue; but if you mouth it, as many of your players do, I had as lief the town-crier spoke my lines. Nor do not saw the air too much with your hand, thus, but use all gently; for in the very torrent, tempest, and as I may say, the whirlwind of your passion, you must acquire and beget a temperance that may give it smoothness.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    What I call middle-class society is any society that becomes rigidified in predetermined forms, forbidding all evolution, all gains, all progress, all discovery. I call middle-class a closed society in which life has no taste, in which the air is tainted, in which ideas and men are corrupt. And I think that a man who takes a stand against this death is in a sense a revolutionary.
    Frantz Fanon (1925–1961)

    Why does man freeze to death trying to reach the North Pole? Why does man drive himself to suffer the steam and heat of the Amazon? Why does he stagger his mind with the mathematics of the sky? Once the question mark has arisen in the human brain the answer must be found, if it takes a hundred years. A thousand years.
    Walter Reisch (1903–1963)

    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)
