  2. Thermal wheel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_Wheel

    The system operates by working as a thermal storage mass whereby the heat from the air is temporarily stored within the wheel matrix until it is transferred to the cooler air stream. [1] Two types of rotary thermal wheels exist: heat wheels and enthalpy wheels. Though there is a geometrical similarity between heat and enthalpy wheels, there are ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_recovery_ventilation

    The system operates by working as a thermal storage mass whereby the heat from the air is temporarily stored within the wheel matrix until it is transferred to the cooler air stream. [7] Two types of rotary thermal wheels exist: heat wheels and enthalpy wheels. Though there is a geometrical similarity between heat and enthalpy wheels, there are ...

  4. Dedicated outdoor air system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dedicated_outdoor_air_system

    DOAS air handling unit with heat recovery wheel and passive dehumidification. A dedicated outdoor air system (DOAS) is a type of heating, ventilation and air-conditioning system that consists of two parallel systems: a dedicated system for delivering outdoor air ventilation that handles both the latent and sensible loads of conditioning the ventilation air, and a parallel system to handle the ...

  5. Run-around coil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Run-around_coil

    A run-around coil installation, serving air handling units on the roof of an office building. A run-around coil is a type of energy recovery heat exchanger most often positioned within the supply and exhaust air streams of an air handling system, or in the exhaust gases of an industrial process, to recover the heat energy. Generally, it refers ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glossary_of_HVAC_terms

    A heating coil is the part of the system that conducts heat. It allows electricity to act as fire. heat exchanger A heat exchanger is the part of the system that transfers heat from the hot parts of the machine or a system to the cold parts of the machine or system. heat gain heat load heat loss

  7. Cooling load - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cooling_load

    The cooling load [3] is calculated to select HVAC equipment that has the appropriate cooling capacity to remove heat from the zone. A zone is typically defined as an area with similar heat gains, similar temperature and humidity control requirements, or an enclosed space within a building with the purpose to monitor and control the zone's temperature and humidity with a single sensor e.g ...

  8. Air-mixing plenum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air-mixing_plenum

    Air streams are mixed to save energy and improve energy efficiency by partially recirculating conditioned air.. The most common application for an air-mixing plenum is the mixing of return air (or extract air) with fresh air to provide a supply air mixture for onward distribution to the building or area which the ventilation system is serving. [1]

  9. Regenerative heat exchanger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regenerative_heat_exchanger

    A regenerative heat exchanger, or more commonly a regenerator, is a type of heat exchanger where heat from the hot fluid is intermittently stored in a thermal storage medium before it is transferred to the cold fluid. To accomplish this the hot fluid is brought into contact with the heat storage medium, then the fluid is displaced with the cold ...
