Abstract
Rotary regenerative heat exchange apparatus having a rotor carrying a mass of heat absorbent element that is alternately exposed to hot and cold fluids. Heat from the hot fluid is first transferred to the cool element, and upon rotation of the rotor is then transferred to the cool fluid flowing therethrough. The rotor and rotor housing that encloses the rotor are supported separately upon independent columns whereby there can be no transmission of force therebetween to induce sympathetic distortion of either the rotor or the rotor housing.
