Summary

REPORTS MEASUREMENTS ON TWO TYPES OF HEAT RECOVERY SYSTEMS, ONE USING A ROTARY HEAT EXCHANGER, THE OTHER USING TWO CLOSED TYPE LIQUID COUPLED HEAT EXCHANGERS. CALCULATES HEAT TRANSFER RATES AND THERMAL EFFICIENCIES ON THE BASIS OF RESULTS OF MEASUREMENTS THAT WERE MADE DURING DIFFERENT PERIODS OF A HEATING SEASON. MAKES A COST BENEFIT ANALYSIS OF BOTH HEAT RECOVERY SYSTEMS. FINDS BOTH SYSTEMS EQUALLY ATTRACTIVE FROM THE ECONOMICAL POINT OF VIEW IF THEY ARE EVALUATED FOR AN ENTIRE HEATING SEASON. PAYOUT TIMES ARE ABOUT SIX YEARS AND RATES OF RETURN ON INVESTMENT ABOUT 20 PERCENT. (INT. BUILD. SERV. ABSTR., GB., 17, N.3, 1982, 9, 82-00777.
