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
