The principle of operation.
Two oncoming streams pass through thin channels.
The only thing that separates the air flows is a thin aluminum foil. In this way, a constant temperature gradient is created and throughout the entire path, one stream cools, the other heats up. Theoretically, we will lose only a few degrees of our heat.

The structure consists of a layered structure of heat insulators (laser-cut plywood) and heat exchangers (aluminum foil, kitchen).

Cheap to manufacture and easy to operate design. On the model you can see the direction of the flows. This design will keep your home warm or keep cool.

At the same time, you will calmly renew the air in the room. As for me, nothing can compare with the thermal conductivity of such a thin heat exchanger. I will be glad to hear your comments.

Let's add some obstacles to the flow. Hopefully this will prevent the particles from going backwards. Maybe it's unnecessary.

In this modification, I have added several additional sections. This is done in one piece. You can add it more than once if you want.

This modification concerns the second stage of the cyclone. 
The edge for dumping fine dust has become smoother. 
The number of turns of the secondary swirler has slightly decreased. This will allow the air to align somewhat before passing the ring-shaped gap.

Well, let's continue.
Cyclone.
 A new iteration!

I'm trying different versions of the cyclone. Perhaps it will be easier to manufacture. Minimum parts. Everything can be printed out.

Another modification of my separator was singing. Now it is two-stage. A bucket has also been added.

The next iteration of my dust separator.
I love SimScale so much. I am far from hydro-gas dynamics. But even my knowledge is enough to use this wonderful resource. Three iterations and I have a perfectly reasonable design. From a simple idea to valuable data.

This dust separator is the next step in development. I'm wondering how effective it can become. The main components are formed for printing.

An attempt to test the operation of the bell mouth to improve air pumping.

I'm a fan of 3D printing.
I really want to improve the design from the UT guy Under Dunn .
My version can be fully printed.

If the community likes it, then I will continue to develop this design further.

Oh, and I really want to run my creation in XFlow.
I am a simple person, I want a beautiful simulation.
