The effects of paper properties such as density, air permeability, water vapor transmission rate on the thermal performance of plate-type enthalpy exchanger were experimentally investigated. Papers having different properties were made from the same pulp by calendering or refining. Enthalpy exchanger samples were made from the papers, and were tested according to the standard test procedure (KS B 6879). Effective efficiencies were obtained, which accounted for the air leakage between supply and exhaust streams. Results showed that paper density affected the sensible heat transfer of the samples. Sensible heat transfer increased with density of the paper. It was also shown that effective efficiency of latent heat transfer was approximately the same independent of the samples, which suggests that papers made of the same pulp show similar water vapor transmission characteristics independent of the degree of calendering or refining. Best performance was obtained for the sample having highest paper density and moderate water vapor transmission ratio.

The effects of paper properties such as density, air permeability, water vapor transmission rate on the thermal performance of plate-type enthalpy exchanger were experimentally investigated. Three enthalpy exchanger samples having different properties were made, and were tested according to the standard test procedure (KS B 6879). Effective efficiencies were defined, which accounted for the air leakage between supply and exhaust streams. Results showed that paper density affected the sensible heat transfer of the samples. Sensible heat transfer increased with density of the paper. It was also shown that water vapor transmission rate alone was not a proper indicator for the efficiency of latent heat transfer. Air permeability should also be considered for adequate evaluation of the latent heat transfer. Best performance was obtained for the sample having highest paper density and moderate water vapor transmission ratio.

This paper is performed to investigate of cooling effect and total enthalpy variation on EAHES(Earth-to-Air Heat Exchanger System) that is buried 3m depth and 60m length. Using EAHES, the reduction of the sensible heat is obviously but latent heat is showed increased trend. Although the outdoor average latent heat accounts for 53.2% of total enthalpy, latent heat of the exit air from EAHES was raised as 58%. For improving cooling effect of EAHES, it has to considered that how to remove the latent heat from EAHES.

It is a critical task to keep the ventilation system working in a proper and efficient manner in large multi-storey buildings, and the enthalpy exchanger is becoming an increasingly important part of the ventilation system by playing the function of channeling heat and moisture. We present a computational study on the heat transfer performance of the cross-flow enthalpy exchanger, which is in large use for residential buildings. The ducts are considered whose cross-sectional shapes resemble triangle and longitudinal centerline a cosine wave. It is shown that, as the cross-sectional shape departs from triangle, the heat transfer performance of the duct tends to deteriorate. Also, applying the wave-like shape to the longitudinal centerline of the duct increases the rate of heat transfer and the applied pressure-gradient at the same time. The origin of the performance variations in the cases considered are quantitatively analyzed and discussed.

전열교환 엘리먼트는 열회수형 환기유닛의 핵심부품으로, 외기와 실내공기의 열 및 수분교환이 이루어진다. 본 연구에서는 현재 국내에서 사용되고 있는 전열교환 엘리먼트에 대하여 외기의 온 습도 변화가 전열교환 엘리먼트의 성능에 미치는 영향을 실험적으로 연구하였다. 전열교환 엘리먼트를 통과 하는 공기 유량, 입 출구의 건 습구 온도를 정밀하게 측정할 수 있는 실험장치를 특별히 제작하였고, 항온항습실내에서 외기의 상대습도 또는 절대습도를 변화시키며 실험을 수행하였다. 실험결과는 현열전달 유용도과 잠열전달 유용도으로 평가되는데 잠열 전달 유용도는 외기의 상대습도의 증가에 따라 증가하였으나 절대습도의 변화에는 거의 무관하게 냐타났다. 한편 현열 교환 유용도는 외기의 온도 및 습도 변화에 무관하게 일정하였다.

The characteristics of energy Performance for total heat exchanger have been investigated under various conditions. In cooling operation the latent and enthalpy efficiency are affected by the difference of absolute humidity ratio between indoor and outdoor air. In addition to this the characteristics of absorbing material in the element affects the energy performance. Low dry bulb temperature of indoor air or high absolute humidity ratio in outdoor air give high latent and enthalpy efficiency even with the same temperature difference of dry bulb temperate between indoor and outdoor air.

In order to better save energy, many buildings have been constructed with high levels of insulation and airtightness in recent years. Additionally, having high quality indoor air has become more relevant, necessitating a ventilating system. This study is aimed at evaluating the performance of a humidity exchanger through computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analysis of elements for the purpose of providing comfortable indoor air and reduced energy consumption. The simulation was conducted with three different shapes (triangle, rectangular, and curve) of heat exchanger elements, in order to find the most effective element. A follow-up simulation then proved the efficiency of the chosen humidity exchanger, which was selected by analyzing the results of the preceding simulation, comparing study data with measurement data from the Korea Testing Laboratory (KTL). The resulting analysis revealed that the rectangular element showed the lowest level of efficiency in both heating and cooling, while the curved element showed the highest level of efficiency in both heating and cooling.

In order to control indoor air quality and save energy, it is needed to install a suitable ventilation system equipped with heat exchanger for heat recovery. The purpose of this research is to find the performance of paper heat exchanger for exhaust heat recovery, which exchanges latent heat as well as sensible heat. Experimental apparatus comprises heat exchanger model, constant temperature and humidity chamber, fan and measurement systems for temperature, pressure and flow rate. Thermal performance and pressure loss of the paper heat exchanger are measured and compared at various air velocities and outdoor conditions. Experimental results show that paper heat exchanger can recover $50{\sim}70%$ of the enthalpy difference between supply and exhaust air.

In order to control indoor air quality and save energy. it is needed to install a suitable ventilation system equipped with heat exchanger for heat recovery. Paper heat exchanger can recover $50{\sim}70$ of the enthalpy difference between supply and exhaust air. The purpose of this research is to obtain the experimental correlations for the friction factor, heat transfer coefficient, mass transfer coefficient and permeance of paper heat exchanger, which can be used for the performance prediction of the paper heat exchanger. Pressure drop at various velocities and heat transfer rate at various dry-bulb temperatures, relative humidities, and specific humidities are measured to make experimental correlations. The results of prediction using correlations show fairly good agreement with experimental data.

Cycle simulation is peformed for two types of the desiccant cooling system incorporating a regenerative evaporative cooler. The cooling capacity and COP are evaluated at various effectiveness values of the regenerative evaporative cooler, the desiccant rotor and the sensible heat exchanger. As either of the effectiveness of the regenerative evaporative cooler or the humidity effectiveness of the desiccant rotor increases, both the cooling capacity and COP increase, but the enthalpy leak ratio gives the opposite effect on the system performance. It is found that COP of cycle A mainly depends on the humidity effectiveness of the desiccant rotor, while for cycle B enthalpy leak ratio of desiccant rotor has the major impact on COP. The effect of the sensible heat exchanger on the cooling capacity is small about 1/10 compared with those of other components.
