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

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)

    Nowadays men cannot love seven night but they must have all their desires: that love may not endure by reason; for where they be soon accorded and hasty, heat soon it cooleth. Right so fareth love nowadays, soon hot soon cold: this is no stability. But the old love was not so.
    Thomas Malory (c. 1430–1471)

    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)
