The sensible plate heat exchanger is constructed with multi-layer aluminum foil plates stacked in a compact cross-flow structure, enabling efficient sensible heat transfer between two separate air streams. Through indirect air-to-air heat exchange, it recovers thermal energy while keeping exhaust air and fresh air completely isolated.
In high-temperature exhaust applications, the aluminum foil air-to-air heat exchanger recovers sensible heat from the hot exhaust air and uses it to preheat incoming fresh or make-up air, significantly reducing the demand for gas, electric, or steam heating. In warm or summer conditions, cooler exhaust air can also be utilized to pre-cool the incoming air, achieving effective air temperature reduction.
By lowering the temperature of hot and humid exhaust air, water vapor can be condensed, enabling dehumidification and visible white plume reduction. With no air mixing, low operating energy consumption, and stable performance, the sensible aluminum foil plate heat exchanger provides a reliable solution for industrial energy recovery, temperature control, and exhaust air treatment applications.
