Rotary heat exchanger and system thereof
A rotary heat exchanger includes a hub configured to be rotatably driven by a shaft, a fan including a plurality of fan blades integrally coupled to the hub and extending radially outwardly therefrom, and a heat exchanger including a plurality of heat exchanger sections. The heat exchanger includes a plurality of cooling fins for receiving air from the fan. Each of the plurality of heat exchanger sections is located between two of the plurality of fan blades. The hub, the fan, and the heat exchanger are integrally formed as a single body by a three-dimensional printing process.

Air conditioning system having cylindrical heat exchangers
An air conditioning system having a compact configuration may include an evaporator and a heater core that have a cylindrical shape. The evaporator defines a cavity. The heater core is positioned within the cavity such that the evaporator and the heater core are coaxially positioned with each other about a center axis. The heater core is configured to rotate about the center axis to draw in air.
