OK, now I see what you mean...
Well, you are right that it is an air to air heat exchanger...
I think that it is designed for a pretty high temperature differential, because it looks to me that the surface area might be rather small.
Can you find one for cheap, from an automobile salvage yard to try out?
The cross-stacked squares of corplast can amount to some serious area for pretty cheap. Around here, they use corplast for political yard signs, and after the election, they are worthless (so are the politicians, but that's another story).
