ABSTRACT:
A method and device for concurrently transferring sensible heat from the warmer of either an incoming outside airstream or an outgoing exhaust airstream to the other stream and transferring latent heat from the wetter of either the incoming outside airstream or the outgoing exhaust airstream to the other stream prior to the incoming airstream entering a standard heating and air conditioning unit. The method and apparatus both employ a rotating heat wheel impregnated with a dry desiccant such as silica gel in order to accomplish the simultaneous transfer of both sensible and latent heat between the two airstreams.
