A heat exchanger of the regenerative type comprising a rotor constructed of corrugated strip layers providing transverse channels extending therethrough. The device is arranged to have separate gas streams directed through different parts of the rotor so that on rotation of the rotor the storage mass effects the exchange of sensible heat between the streams.
