Regenerators compared to the recuperators for the same duty__________________?
Correct answer: A. Occupy more space
- A. Occupy more space
- B. Are less costly
- C. Are of smaller size
- D. All A., B. and C.
Explanation
A regenerator requires separate refractory storage chambers or checkerwork to absorb and release heat, so it generally occupies more space than a recuperator for the same duty. Recuperators transfer heat continuously through a separating wall.
