Analysis of the temperature, humidity, and total efficiency of the air handling unit with a periodic counterflow heat exchanger

摘要

In this work, thermal, humidity and enthalpy recover efficiency of innovative energy recovery exchanger is presented. The system under analysis allows adjustment of the humidity recovery especially useful in the winter period and forefend energy use for an anti-froze system of energy exchanger. It is shown that the presented method can achieve the real value for humidity and thermal efficiency above 80% and 90%, respectively. Such high efficiency was possible to obtain because the proposed system does not require energy consuming anti-freeze systems. The presented system is able to work even in extremely adverse outdoor air conditions (-20°C and humidity 100%).
