Abstract (en)

[origin: WO03062729A1] A plurality of independently operable regenerative heat exchanger modules (1-5) are provided to regeneratively transfer heat from a hot gas to a cold gas. The regenerative heat exchanger modules are connected to a regenerative heat exchanger system controller (1p-5p) which staggers the operation of each regenerative heat exchanger module to simulate the operation of a rotary regenerative heat exchanger. The regenerative heat exchanger system controller can manually or automatically take selected ones of the regenerative heat exchanger modules off-line while the remaining regenerative heat exchanger modules continue to simulate the operation of the rotary regenerative heat exchanger. Also disclosed are a control system and a method for operating a number of independently operable regenerative heat exchanger modules to simulate the operation of a rotary regenerative heat exchanger.
