ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for transferring heat regeneratively in a rotating heat exchanger. The heat exchanger provides for the cold gas stream to be heated alternate compression and expansion with heat addition usually during the expansion phase of the compression-expansion step from a warmer fluid. The fluid to be heated is usually a gas, while the fluid releasing heat may be either a gas or liquid. The heat element is a folded member usually in the form of bellows mounted concentric with rotor shaft, with baffles within to provide for outward and inward movement of the gas. Due to the heat addition especially during the expansion steps, the gas to be heated gains in pressure and usually this pressure gain is work free, and in magnitude is similar to the constant volume heat addition pressure gain which is well known.
