Optimizing the operating and design parameters of regenerative rotary heat exchangers
EDN: YMXRYV
Abstract
The possibility of using rotary regenerative heat exchangers in marine ventilation systems in order to increase the ship's energy efficiency is considered. A method for evaluating the efficiency of the system has been developed. Various design parameters of rotor are suggested. The calculation study of the effectiveness evaluation of all considered variants of the design of the rotor was conducted. Variants of optimization of the existing system of supply and outgoing ventilation with regenerative heat exchanger are obtained. The recommendations on the selection of parameters for rotor design are given.
