Abstract
A regenerative heat exchanger is disclosed and described for gas streams that perform heat exchange between one another using a buffer that is continuously immersed in the gas streams. The buffer is cleanable by a pivotable blowing arm that uses spray nozzles to clean the buffer. The blowing arm has an axis that is positioned parallel to the flow direction of the gas streams across the buffer and allows for the use of two blowing arms which extend in a mirror image opposite to one another. The spray nozzles each distribute compressed air and/or pressurized water.
