A heat exchange system for transferring heat between intake air flowing into an enclosure and exhaust air flowing out of the enclosure. The system includes a plurality of fins and a plurality of heat pipes each extending into engagement with all of the fins. Half of the fins are positioned for engagement by the intake air and half are positioned for engagement by the exhaust air. The heat pipes are bi-directional and self regulating so that both the direction and the rate of heat transfer in the system depend upon the relative temperatures of the intake air and the exhaust air. The efficiency of the heat pipes can also be regulated to control the temperature of the air entering the enclosure by elevating the ends of the heat pipes, either manually or automatically to control the temperature of the incoming air. |
