METHOD TO ADJUST SEALING GAP IN REGENERATIVE HEAT EXCHANGER DEPENDING ON TEMPERATURE, HEAT-CONTROLLED ADJUSTMENT DEVICE FOR ITS REALISATION AND REGENERATIVE HEAT EXCHANGER Russian patent published in 2012 - IPC F28F27/00 

FIELD: heating.

SUBSTANCE: during adjustment of a sealing gap depending on temperature between a movable seal and a rotary rotor of a regenerative heat exchanger, at least one adjustment device is used, comprising several rod elements, due to interaction of which with each other sliding adjustment of the seal is developed, at the same time at least two of these rod elements are controlled separately via according chambers with the help of a control medium of alternating temperature, so that these rod elements are exposed to different temperatures. The invention also relates to a regenerative heat exchanger, where such an adjustment device may be used, and the method to adjust sealing gaps.

EFFECT: development of a simple automatic and cheap method to adjust the seal in the regenerative heat exchanger.
