Countercurrent hexagonal recuperator

Design and application

- The countercurrent heat exchanger for energy recovery consists of a package of aluminum plates, cross-formed, between which two air flows alternately and in opposite directions - exhaust and supply air flows. The temperature and humidity of the treated air changes.
- The recuperator is equipped with by-pass (bypass channel), which provides frost protection as well as energy recovery thermal power regulation.
- Optionally the recuperator can be equipped with an integrated heat mixing chamber.
- The heat exchanger transfers the apparent heat from the more heated air flow to the less heated air flow - in winter the exhaust air heat is utilized to heat the supply air, in summer the supply air is cooled by the lower temperature exhaust air

Features

- Energy utilization is carried out at a high degree of separation of the two air flows (99.9%).
- The energy recovery efficiency reaches 93%, depending on the air flow velocity, mass flow rates and relative humidity
