Abstract

Purpose: Air pollution is becoming serious around the world, and indoor air quality in buildings is also deteriorating. For energy-saving ventilation and good indoor air environment, this research proposed and made a window type heat exchange ventilation system that can be installed easily in an existing house, and examined its performance. A plate type heat exchange element for ventilator was made by a 3D printer. Method: According to the Korean Industrial Standard KS B 6879:2020 Test Method for Heat Recovery Ventilator, the ventilator was tested four times in a real environment. Two experiments were measured for 10 minutes, and the remaining two were measured for 11 hours and 10 hours, respectively. Ventilation, supply air, exhaust air, and outside air dry-bulb temperatures were measured every 5 seconds. After that, the temperature exchange efficiency was calculated for ventilation, supply air, exhaust air, and outside air average temperature using the temperature exchange efficiency formula described in KS B 6879:2020. Result: The performance was 70.97% in the first experiment, 68.11% in the second experiment, 56.47% in the third experiment, and 64.16% in the fourth experiment.
