Abstract
A heat recovery installation using solar energy includes a three-channel plate, in which the first channel layer, viewed from the outside, alternately discharges used air and supplies fresh air. The third channel layer, viewed from the outside, ensures the supply of used air and the discharge of fresh air, while in the second channel layer, viewed from the outside, the heat exchange between the used and fresh air takes place according to the counterflow principle. In order to produce this flow, small apertures are provided in the second and third plates, viewed from the outside, of the three-channel plate, as a result of which the flow in the channel layer, viewed from the outside, is at right angles to the channel plate. By making the airflow quicker than the heat flow (Pe>>1), no heat can flow from the inside to the outside, except for a small loss flow through the partitions and through radiation and, conversely, mainly heat exchange of the used to fresh air according to the counterflow principle takes place with heat recovery. If the channel plate is made of transparent material and the inner plate is provided with a (sun)light absorber, then (sun)light which shines on the three-channel plate is also converted into heat and given off directly and indirectly to the fresh air.
