THE DESIGN OF A RUN-AROUND HEAT RECOVERY SYSTEM.

Author(s) : FORSYTH B. I., BESANT R. W.

Summary

THE PAPER PRESENTS A PROCEDURE FOR ANALYZING AND OPTIMIZING THE DESIGN OF A VENTILATION RUN-AROUND HEAT RECOVERY SYSTEM FOR A GIVEN SET OF OPERATING CONDITIONS OF AIR FLOW, TEMPERATURE, AND HUMIDITY. THE DESIGN PARAMETERS THAT INFLUENCED THE GLYCOL REYNOLDS NUMBER ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT, WHEREAS THE AIR REYNOLDS NUMBER ONLY PLAYED A MINOR ROLE. THE OPTIMUM DESIGN IS CONSIDERED TO BE THAT WHICH MINIMIZES THE SUMMATION OF OPERATING AND CAPITAL COSTS AND NEGATIVE ENERGY RECOVERY COSTS OF THE RUN-AROUND SYSTEM. IT IS EXPECTED THAT THE OPTIMIZATION TECHNIQUE WILL LEAD TO BETTER DESIGNS OF RUN-AROUND SYSTEMS PROVIDED ACCURATE COSTS AND PHYSICAL PERFORMANCE CORRELATIONS ARE USED IN THE MODEL.
