Performance Study Of Energy Recovery
System With Two Different Sizes Of Heat
Exchanger Under Hot-Humid
Environment.
Masters thesis, Universiti Sains Malaysia.
Abstract
This thesis reports the theoretical and experimental analysis of energy recovery
system with two different sizes of heat exchangers under hot-humid environment. The
heat exchangers were made of membrane based material with cross-flow arrangement
with an ability to transfer both sensible and latent heat from hot-humid intake airstream.
The two different sizes heat exchangers i.e. smaller size and bigger size were compared
with theoretical and experimental analysis. In the theoretical and experimental analysis,
Number of Transfer Unit-effectiveness method and ASHRAE standard method were
used. The performance of the heat exchangers was analysed based on the operating
parameters namely air velocity, intake temperature, relative humidity and recovered
energy. The results showed that as the air velocity increased, the effectiveness of energy
recovery system decreased.
