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:

- Plate heat exchanger
- Plate fin heat exchanger
- Ground-coupled heat exchanger
- Dynamic scraped surface heat exchanger
- Waste Heat Recovery Unit

Famous quotes containing the words air, heat and/or exchanger:
“At length, having come up fifty rods off, he uttered one of those prolonged howls, as if calling on the god of loons to aid him, and immediately there came a wind from the east and rippled the surface, and filled the whole air with misty rain, and I was impressed as if it were the prayer of the loon answered, and his god was angry with me; and so I left him disappearing far away on the tumultuous surface.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“When the heat of the summer
Made drowsy the land,
A dragon-fly came
And sat on my hand;”
—Eleanor Farjeon (1881–1965)
“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)
