ABSTRACT:
A rotary regenerative air heater for the heating of combustion air by hot waste gases is described. In a rotary regenerative heat exchanger having a rotor carrying heat exchange surfaces and arranged to rotate in a casing so that individual parts of the rotor pass alternately through a hot gas pass and a cool gas pass to effect transfer of heat between the two passes, and sealing elements carried by the rotor engage stationary seal plates to effect a substantially gas-tight seal between the hot gas pass and the cool gas pass, each of the stationary seal plates carries a probe which can be moved beyond the seal plate to engage sealing elements as they pass the seal plate, and means are provided by which a measure can be made of, and/or a control can be effected in accordance with, the spacing between the sealing elements and said seal plate.
