English term or phrase: thermal wheel
Definition from Energy Efficient Technologies:
Thermal wheel is a heat transfer device with a rotating wheel, which allows the sensible heat transfer between the fresh air intake and exhaust air in an AC system. The air duct connections are arranged so that each of the airstreams flow axially through approximately one half of the wheel in a counter-flow pattern. The porous media that is heated from the warm duct airstream, rotates into the cold duct airstream where sensible heat is released.

Example sentence(s):
  • The amount of heating energy required to meet room conditions after the energy recovery device is reduced dramatically and, in some cases, can be removed altogether, particularly when a thermal wheel is the energy recovery device. Building Services&Environmental Engineer
  • Thermal wheels can recover about 85% of heat from ventilation air, transferring it to incoming fresh air, which then needs minimal additional heating to reach the required temperature for the building. heatingandventilating.net
  • Stringent building regulations and tighter standards in building services provision has led to the sudden popularity of thermal wheel technology. A standard air handling unit can be turned into a highly efficient unit using thermal wheels, ultimately saving energy and reducing carbon emissions. Air Options Limited

rotora rekuperators


Definition from own experience or research:
Rekuperators ir siltummainis, kas kalpo enerģijas ekonomijai, savācot "lieko" enerģiju no iekārtas/ēkas izplūstošajās gāzēs, kas rodas, piemēram, apkures un ventilācijas procesos. Viens no rekuperatora veidiem ir rotora rekuperators.

Example sentence(s):
  • Rekuperators pēc savas būtības ir siltummainis, kas izgudrots speciāli enerģijas ekonomijai. Šīs ierīces “savāc” sevī visu lieko enerģiju pie ūdens uzsildīšanas, no gaisa gāzes sadegšanas procesā, pie tvaiku parādīšanās vai no citiem degšanas produktiem. .. Celtniecībā pazīstami dažādu veidu rekuperatori — plāksnīšu, kameru, rotoru, rekuperatori ar starpsistēmas siltumnesēju, siltuma caurules. - Mana Māja  
  • Siltuma rekuperācija jeb siltuma atkārtota absorbēšana ir process, kura gaitā siltums tiek absorbēts no izplūstošā gaisa un nodots ieplūstošajam, kas tiek uzsildīts. Process rekuperācijas siltummainī norisinās tā, lai atdalāmais un svaigais gaiss būtu maksimāli nošķirti, lai novērstu to sajaukšanos. Rekuperators (latīņu recuperator - atgriezošs, atpakaļ saņemošs) ir iekārta, kura darbībā tiek izmantots izplūstošo gāžu siltums. .. Rotora rekuperatori Siltums tiek novadīts starp izplūdes un pieplūdes kanālu ar rotējošo rotoru, kas ir pārklāts ar metāla foliju. Rotora griešanās ātrums regulē siltuma rekuperācijas līmeni. - Arhitektūras un celtniecības aģentūr
