Abstract: Enthalpy exchanger elements which allow the creation of enthalpy exchangers whereby the efficiency of sensible energy exchange and latent energy exchange can be varied and controlled and especially improved. Also, a method for the production of enthalpy exchanger elements including: ?a) perforating a flat plate element (1) according to a predetermined perforation pattern (2, 2, . . . ) within the plate outer dimensions, or providing a plate element (1) with an inherent pore structure; ?b) applying to at least one side (1a) of the plate element (1) a thin polymer film (3) with water vapor transmission characteristics; ?c) forming the plate element (1) into a desired shape exhibiting a corrugation pattern (4, 4, . . . ), whereby the polymer film (3) is formed into the same corrugation pattern shape as that of the plate element (1).

Abstract: The invention relates to a tube register (RR) for a heat exchanger (WT), in particular a heating element or cooling element, through which a heat transfer fluid may flow, and which has two distributor lines (1, 2), between which a plurality of connecting tubes (3) extend which fluidically connect the first distributor line, also referred to as the supply distributor (1), to the second distributor line, also referred to as the return distributor (2), the tube register having a linear supply distributor (1) and a linear return distributor (2) running in parallel thereto, between which a plurality of connecting tubes (3), situated in a plane, extend, the first ends (3a) of the connecting tubes (3) in each case being fluidically connected to the supply distributor (1), and the second ends (3b) of the connecting tubes (3) in each case being fluidically connected to the return distributor (2), characterized in that the connecting sites (P1) between the supply distributor (1) and the connecting tubes (3) are situate

Abstract: The invention relates to a system and method for fastening a heating/cooling element (3) to a wall or to a floor, the method comprising the following steps: a) fastening at least two brackets (1, 2) to a wall (W) and/or to a floor (B), the longitudinal axis (L) of each bracket (1, 2) being vertically oriented and the two brackets (1, 2) being spaced apart from one another in the horizontal direction; b) bringing a first (lower) edge formation of the heating/cooling element into engagement with the complementary first bracket formation (F1) of the particular bracket (1, 2), so that a pivoting engagement between the heating/cooling element (3) and the brackets (1, 2) is established; c) pivoting the heating/cooling element (3) with respect to the two brackets (1, 2) about a pivot axis (R), a second (upper) edge formation of the heating/cooling element being swiveled toward the second bracket formation (F2) of the particular bracket (1, 2); and d) bringing the second (upper) edge formation of the heating/cooli
