Impact of damper opening time on work of storage matrix regenerative heat exchanger

Abstract

Devices that by heat exchange take heat from exhaust air stream and transfer it to the external air stream in order to pre heat are called heat recovery heat exchangers. The heat exchange may take place through the wall (diaphragm) or using heat storage liquid (these devices are called recuperators) or by direct contact of exhaust and external air stream with the heat transfer surface - these devices are called regenerators. The publication presents the work characteristics of the storage matrix heat exchanger based on laboratory tests. In order to achieve the objectives the research station was designed and built.
