Air crossover in rotary wheels used for air-to-air heat and moisture recovery.

Summary

The paper investigates the reasons and the importance of air crossover occurring in thermal wheels, due to the leaks at the level of sliding seals. Equations showing the alteration of heat exchange performance due to crossover, when pressure differences are sufficient, are presented.
