Introduction

The rotary regenerative air to air heat exchangers or sometimes known as the heat wheel uses a principle conceived, and designed and tested by the C.S.I.R.O and Monash University and later improved by Ecopower.

The high efficiency wheel is capable of operating at temperatures up to 300 degrees Celsius and is capable of recovering up to 95% of flue and exhaust gas heat for reuse in industrial applications or space heating.

Major applications to date have been in hospital, swimming pools and major building applications as well as a novel waste heat recovery application at a industrial paper manufacturing plant.

It is also commonly used to recover energy from building exhausts to provide air conditioned fresh air with very little energy usage.
For swimming pool environments this means plenty of fresh dry heated air free of pool hall contaminants.
Packaged fresh air units with heat wheel and fans are now available.

There are now more than 350 rotary heat exchangers in use throughout Australia and overseas with the more recent in projects and buildings such as:
