The wire mesh regenerator of the Stirling cycle machine

There are two applications of the regenerators as a heat recovery system in the processes: fixed-bed and rotary. In the fixed bed regenerators (FBRs) the bed is fixed and the hot and cold streams are periodically passed through the bed while in the rotary type the streams are fixed and the bed is rotating facing each stream.

Effectiveness of plate-type heat exchangers is 45% to 65%, compared to between 60% and 80% for rotary regenerators (Heinrich and Franzke, 1993). The rotational speed of the matrix can be used to regulate the amount of the heat transferred. Thus, rotary heat exchangers are characterized by both compactness and high performance (Skiepko, 1989).
