Towards more versatile fluidised-bed heat exchangers

P.R. Sanderson and J.R. Howard

Applied Energy, 1977, vol. 3, issue 2, 115-125

Abstract: Much potentially useful energy is wasted because it is carried by effluent gases containing contaminants which cause rapid fouling of heat exchange surfaces, which might be used to recover this energy. A solution to this problem might lie in the use of a falling cloud of dense particles to extract the heat from the gas in combination with a fluidised-bed heat exchanger to transfer the heat from the particles to some other suitable medium. This paper describes a preliminary investigation, initiated by Professor Elliott, into this process using a falling cloud of steel particles and discusses one possible application of it.
