White Paper - A Primer on Recovery Efficiency Ratio (RER)
The Recovery Efficiency Ratio (RER) was introduced by AHRI in 2003 as Guideline V. It is defined as "the energy recovered divided by the energy expended in the recovery process". This ratio links the energy saved with the energy required to obtain that savings. It takes into account often ignored peripheral energy consumers that are necessary to obtain the saved energy. These may include pressure drop, wheel drive motor, purge losses, and glycol pumps. However, since heat pipes do not require any peripheral energy devices, their RER can be defined as the BTUH transferred divided by the airside pressure drop.
