Abstract:
1. A media sheet assembly for a heat exchanger, the media sheet assembly comprising a media sheet, wherein the media sheet comprising a first layer having a first outer surface and a second layer having a second outer surface, the first and second layers defining a plurality of passages extending therebetween, wherein an orientation of each of the plurality of passages defined in the first layer is parallel to an orientation of that passage defined in the second layer, at least one of the first and second outer surfaces comprising a plurality of depressions, the plurality of depressions further defining the plurality of passages therebetween and formed by attachment of the first layer and the second layer together such that the first layer and the second layer are in contact at each of the plurality of depressions; and a mount connected to an edge defined by the first outer layer and the second outer layer, the mount comprising a plurality of slots for mounting the media sheet in the heat exchanger, and wherein the media sheet is polymer fiber-based and wettable and allows direct contact between an inlet flow and a heat exchange medium, and wherein at least a portion of the plurality of passages each include an inlet opening positioned at an edge defined by the first outer layer and the second outer layer and configured to accept the heat exchange medium.
