Rotary recuperator statics: search for optimal operating modes

Abstract

The operation of the recuperator requires electricity, but saves heat. An urgent problem is to find the optimal mode of operation of the recuperator.The previous article described the experiment, presented the results of experimental studies, obtained a model of statics of a rotary recuperator and compared it with the experiment - the comparison showed sufficient accuracy (about a tenth of a degree). Experimental studies were performed with recuperators manufactured by REMAK model XPXR.The problem of static optimization on the principle of the greatest economic benefit (the greatest energy saving in terms of energy cost) is formed. The problem is solved for the case of obtaining thermal energy from the own boiler of the company.The received algorithm of search of optimum operating modes is introduced for increase of energy saving in ALC "Institute of the radio measuring equipment" in the cold period of the year.
