Counterflow heat exchangers easily approach 100% efficiency. It needs to be large enough, and needs sensors to control the flow, but both of those are trivial at this scale.
- lazide 3y agoThey’ll need to move 2x the volume of water, and have more infrastructure to maintain - even if it was actually 100% thermally efficient. Not counting capital costs. Which I’d count as efficiency issues. The water pumping and maintenance costs are likely going to be their largest ongoing costs, no?
