Q = UA (∆T)Need to determine ∆T.This is not straightforward as for the parallel flow case.
UA –Value & LMTDThe unit’s overall conductance or UA value is defined as the product of the overall heat transfer coefficient and the heat transfer area. For counter-flow applications, the heat transfer rate is defined as the product of overall conductance and the log-mean temperature difference, LMTD, i.e., Q UA LMTD= ⋅where the log-mean temperature difference is equal to,

EffectivenessThe heat exchanger effectiveness, ε, is defined as the ratio of the rate of heat transfer in the exchanger, Q, to the maximum theoretical rate of heat transfer, , i.e.,maxQ

NTUThe number of transfer units (NTU) is an indicator of the actual heat-transfer area or physical size of the heat exchanger. The larger the value of NTU, the closer the unit is to its thermodynamic limit. It is defined as,

Capacity RatioThe capacity ratio, Cr, is representative of the operational condition of a given heat exchanger and will vary depending on the geometry and flow configuration (parallel flow, counterflow, cross flow, etc.) of the exchanger. This value is defined as the minimum heat capacity rate divided by the maximum capacity rate, i.e.,

It is important to note that the capacity ratio will be directlyproportional to the ratio of the mass flow rates if the specificheats of the flows are fairly constant.

Enthalpy WheelThe heart of the Energy Recovery Ventilator is the desiccant coated energy recovery wheel, which slowly rotates between its two sections. In one section, the stale, conditioned air is passed through the wheel, and exhausted in the atmosphere. During this process, the wheel absorbs sensible and latent energy from the conditioned air, which is used to condition (cool / heat) the incoming Fresh Air in the other section, during the second half of its rotation cycle.
