dc.description.abstract | Fixed-bed regenerators (FBRs) are a favorable option for energy recovery in building HVAC systems due to their high sensible effectiveness. Unlike other types of energy recovery exchangers, the air temperature at the outlet of FBRs varies with time, which creates challenges when measuring the outlet temperature and effectiveness of FBRs since the actual outlet air temperature will include the transient response of the FBR and the temperature sensor. In this article, a validated numerical model of FBRs that takes into account the sensor response is used to quantify the temperature and effectiveness errors that result due to sensors’ response characteristics over a wide range of design parameters. The main contributions of this article are the practical recommendations for the temperature measurement for different types of FBRs developed for HVAC applications. The recommendations presented in this article could be implemented in future versions of the current standards (ASHRAE 84 and CSA C439-18 standards) for performance testing of air-to-air energy exchangers. | en_US |
