Principle of energy storage heat exchanger

Here's how it works:Hot fluid enters and flows through one set of channels or tubes.Cold fluid enters and flows through separate channels or tubes alongside the hot fluid.Heat transfers from the hot fluid to the cold one through the solid wall.The hot fluid cools down as it loses heat, while the cold fluid heats up.Both fluids exit the exchanger with their temperatures adjusted.
