Summary

Energy and cost savings by regenerative heat recovery in air-conditioning systems in Australia are potentially greatest in the humid tropical regions using total heat regenerators, while sensible heat regenerators are satisfactory for use in southern regions. A sensible heat regenerator with a matrix made from polyester film was evolved by CSIRO, and is being manufactured commercially in Melbourne and used in southern Australia. A total heat regenerator with a matrix made from wool-nylon ribbon is being developed by CSIRO. Satisfactory performance has been obtained, but carry-over and face area for given capacity are excessive at this stage.
