This paper presents a CFD Heat Transfer Analysis of an originally designed system for heat recovery in the building sector. The heat exchanger has a dual role, which means it will produce simultaneously hot water and warm air. The key to the efficiency of the heat exchanger is the heat pipe system which recovers thermal energy from residual hot water and transfers it to the secondary agents. The paper includes a case study structured by different mesh distributions and flow regimes. The purpose of the heat exchanger is to reduce the costs of producing thermal energy and to increase the overall energy efficiency of buildings.
