Transient behavior of a falling-film drain water heat recovery device, thermal and economic performance assessments

The drain water heat recovery device (DWHR) is a vertical, counter-flow heat exchanger, which is designed to recover heat from warm grey water in buildings. In this study, the transient characteristics of a DWHR device is experimentally and analytically investigated. A transient model is developed t...
