The ceramic heat exchangers are used in applications with higher process temperatures or with high thermal loads.
Ceramic recuperative heat exchanger.
The flow schemes and fabrication techniques of the heat exchanging matrices are illustrated.
A recuperator is a special purpose counter flow energy recovery heat exchanger positioned within the supply and exhaust air streams of an air handling system or in the exhaust gases of an industrial process in order to recover the waste heat generally they are used to extract heat from the exhaust and use it to preheat air entering the combustion system.
Devices involving energy sources such as nuclear fuel pins or fired heaters are not normally regarded as heat exchangers although many of the principles.
The main difference between a regenerative thermal oxidizer rto and recuperative thermal oxidizer is the different methods they use for heat recovery in the system.
Metallic and ceramic prototype matrices are shown which have been fabricated successfully.
Regenerative oxidizers pass hot exhaust gas and cooler inlet gas through one or more heat exchanger beds containing ceramic media.
The technology used includes tape casting punching lamination and embossing as well.
A compact plate type recuperative heat exchanger feasible in metal or ceramic materials and suitable for stationary and vehicular gas turbines is described.
The hot flue gases are fed through the ceramic or metallic heat exchanger which is integrat ed in the burner heating the additional supply of cold combustion air flowing in the opposite direction.
Heat exchanger hx areas up to 2500 m 2 m 3 can be fabricated.
The fluids can be single or two phase and depending on the exchanger type may be separated or in direct contact.

A regenerative heat exchanger or more commonly a regenerator is a type of heat exchanger where heat from the hot fluid is intermittently stored in a thermal storage medium before it is transferred to the cold fluid.
The two major types of primary heat recovery are recuperative and regenerative heat exchanger systems.
A heat exchanger is a device used to transfer heat between two or more fluids.
Self recuperative burners ecomax are used for heating on either direct or indirect furnace systems in on off intermittent mode.
Recuperative systems typically employ shell and tube type heat exchangers.
To accomplish this the hot fluid is brought into contact with the heat storage medium then the fluid is displaced with the cold fluid which absorbs the heat.
