In this paper, we performed numerical analysis to improve the heat exchange efficiency of wasted heat recovery ventilator which has a delivery and a exhaustion fan. One of the most important design factors that affect the efficiency of heat exchange is uniform counter-flow between inbound and outbound air flows. We had simulated several types of porous plates which were installed at air intake area. With plate having 45 degrees of installation angle and 15 mm diameter holes which are uniformly arranged, we can generate a uniform air flows at the area of porous media where inbound and outbound air flows are cross over. In addition, we installed a duct to reduce vortex flows at the outlet and to discharge exhaust airs rapidly. By using the proposed numerical assessment, we expect the improvement of the heat exchange efficiency of ventilator.
