PURPOSE:To make it possible to use various types of heating fluids by a method wherein holders in which latent heat type thermal heat accumulating material is encased are arranged with the same spacing and with alternately salient and re- entrant positions of holders to form them into a block unit. Multiple numbers of such block units are assembled into a unit having two independent fluid passages. CONSTITUTION:The flat holders 10 in which latent heat type thermal heat accumulating material is encased are arranged lengthwise with the same spacing in such a manner as arranged out of line with alternately salient and re-entrant positions of holders. These are then formed into a block unit B with fixing panels 14 put on both sides. Multiple numbers of the block units B are then arranged in parallel with one another with proper lateral spacing in multiple rows with top and bottom covered. By such a setup, both lengthwise and breadthwise fluid passages can be formed independent of each other so that heating fluid passages and passages for fluid to be heated can be separated each other. Therefore, such heat exchangers can be used for various types of heating fluids, and their capacities are easily adjustable by varying numbers and/or ways of arranging the block units.
