Summary

Heat recovery in ventilation systems can be obtained from both the sensible fraction and the latent fraction. Total heat recovery is limited in winter by the humidity of the supply air; this lowers the exchange capacity in the heating period. Three different climates are considered (Milan, Rome, Palermo), evaluating the recovery for unitary air ventilation flow rate and the economic savings. The investment is often profitable.
