Regenerative heat exchanger

A regenerative heat exchanger includes a refrigerant pipe, a regenerator, and an air passage fin. The air passage fin is disposed in an air passage defined outside of the refrigerant pipe and the regenerator, and is thermally connected with the regenerator directly or through the refrigerant pipe.

Summary:A regenerative heat exchanger includes a refrigerant pipe, a regenerator, and an air passage fin. The air passage fin is disposed in an air passage defined outside of the refrigerant pipe and the regenerator, and is thermally connected with the regenerator directly or through the refrigerant pipe. At least one of the regenerator and the air passage fin is configured such that a thermal resistance between a part of a regenerative material located on an upstream side and air flowing through the air passage becomes larger than a thermal resistance between a part of the regenerative material located on a downstream side and air flowing through the air passage.
