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:
“It is true that the rivers went nosing like swine,
Tugging at banks, until they seemed
Bland belly-sounds in somnolent troughs,
That the air was heavy with the breath of these swine,
The breath of turgid summer, and
Heavy with thunder’s rattapallax....”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“Even if you find yourself in a heated exchange with your toddler, it is better for your child to feel the heat rather than for him to feel you withdraw emotionally.... Active and emotional involvement between parent and child helps the child make the limits a part of himself.”
—Stanley I. Greenspan (20th century)
“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)
