A New Type of Heat Exchanger for Ventilation in Buildings with Nearly-Zero Energy Consumption

Abstract:

This article describes a new type of hollow-fiber heat exchanger that provides similar heating performance to conventional metal heat exchangers commonly used in air conditioning systems but at lower cost and greater simplicity. While factors such as fragility and element fouling have yet to be optimized, the exchanger shows great promise for application in buildings aiming at close-to-zero energy consumption.
