  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 ...

    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. Heat transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_transfer

    The energy needed to evaporate the water is taken from the air in the form of sensible heat and converted into latent heat, while the air remains at a constant enthalpy. Latent heat describes the amount of heat that is needed to evaporate the liquid; this heat comes from the liquid itself and the surrounding gas and surfaces.

  6. 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.

  7. Sensible heat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensible_heat

    The sensible heat of a thermodynamic process may be calculated as the product of the body's mass (m) with its specific heat capacity (c) and the change in temperature (): =. Joule described sensible heat as the energy measured by a thermometer. Sensible heat and latent heat are not special forms of energy. Rather, they describe exchanges of ...

  8. Thermodynamic system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_system

    In a closed system, no mass may be transferred in or out of the system boundaries. The system always contains the same amount of matter, but (sensible) heat and (boundary) work can be exchanged across the boundary of the system. Whether a system can exchange heat, work, or both is dependent on the property of its boundary.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_databases...

    C p is therefore the slope of a plot of temperature vs. isobaric heat content (or the derivative of a temperature/heat content equation). The SI units for heat capacity are J/(mol·K). Molar heat content of four substances in their designated states above 298.15 K and at 1 atm pressure. CaO(c) and Rh(c) are in their normal standard state of ...
