  • wall like does not refer to a cubic design with flat surfaces but the overall volume which the respective heat transfer means take.
  • a tube, meandering (zig-zag) such that the central longitunal axis of the tube lies in one imaginary plane is an example for a wall-like pattern.
  • Tube sections may extend in different directions along two axis of the coordinate system.
  • This design allows the solid particles within the fluidized bed to flow between said individual heat transfer means, namely within said spaces (channels) formed between adjacent heat transfer means, without any obstacles (baffles) but including the option to flow from one of said channels/spaces/gaps into an adjacent one.

  • This design gives an optimized return position for the solid particles back into the CFBR.
  • the minimum distance between the bottom area of the CFBR and the place, where the solid particles enter the CFBR, guarantees that the solid particles may freely enter the combustion chamber (the fluidized bed) and avoids any backflow from the fluidized bed, especially from the denseboard ( high pressure zone) of the fluidized bed, being the lowermost section of the fluidized bed, right above the aerated/pressurized bottom.
  • FBHE does not require any complex sealing systems along the return means/outlet port.
  • the length L of the CFBR is defined as the distance between the upper surface of the aerated bottom (grate-/nozzle area) and the inner surface of the chamber ceiling.

  • the FBHE (its inner chamber/space) typically has a cubic or cylindrical shape of high volume.
  • the improvement allows to distribute the solid particles on their way into the chamber over a much larger area, depending on the shape and size of the distribution means. At the same time the density of the solids within the particle stream is reduced, which further increases the heat transfer efficiency from the hot particles into the heat transfer medium (a brine, steam or the like).

  • a further improvement H relates to a:
  • Fluidized bed heat exchanger with a chamber comprising at least one solid particles inlet port, at least one solid particles outlet port, arranged at a distance to the at least one inlet port, means for introducing a fluidizing gas from a bottom area of said chamber into said chamber, at least one heat transfer means, arranged within said chamber, wherein said means for introducing the fluidizing gas are provided by a multiplicity of nozzles arranged along the bottom area of said chamber and different nozzles being charged with different gas pressure.
  • the aerated bottom (the air/gas permeable bottom as part of the fluidized bed) is divided into sections/zones/areas, where air is applied under different pressure. This allows to provide a custom-made pressure profile within the FBHE and thus to optimize the heat transfer and particle transport.
  • a multiplicity of air openings mostly provided by air nozzles, can be linked to a common air feeding duct or funnel.
  • a similar design may be used for a syphon arranged between separator and CFBR according to the following improvement I:

  • the overall design of said syphon, serving as a gas seal between components of the fluidized bed apparatus connected upstream and downstream of said syphon, is similar to that of the fluidized bed heat exchanger as disclosed above. The main difference is, that the syphon does not necessarily comprise any heat transfer means.
  • a first nozzle set blows air in a counterflow to the solid particles into the entrance port
  • a second nozzle set provides nozzles which blow air/gas into the mostly horizontally oriented stream of solid particles along the intermediate section while a third nozzle set blows air into the solid particles leaving the syphon via the exit port, wherein air/gas and solid particles have the same transport direction along this exit section.
  • Improvement K relates to a:
  • Fluidized bed heat exchanger with a chamber comprising at least one solid particles inlet port, at least one solid particles outlet port, arranged at a distance to the at least one inlet port, means for introducing a fluidizing gas from a bottom area of said chamber into said chamber, at least one heat transfer means, arranged within said chamber, at least one baffle which extends downwardly from a chamber ceiling, substantially perpendicular to a straight line between inlet port and outlet port, with its lower end at a distance to the heat transfer means.
  • This at least one baffle does not influence the flow of the solid particles within the part of the FBHE equipped with the heat transfer means as it is arranged above said heat transfer means and only serves to redirect the incoming solid particle stream (downwardly) and to equalize the pressure above the fluidized bed and along the horizontal cross section of the chamber, in particular, if provided with opening(s).
  • the baffles have the function of separation walls and avoid short circuits of the solid material flow (directly from the inlet port to the outlet port). They urge the solid particle stream to penetrate into the heat transfer zone between the heat transfer means (the channels mentioned above).
  • the baffle construction may interact with improvement H.

  • FIG 2 further shows the design and construction of heat transfer means 28 within the fluidized bed heat exchanger 24. In the Figure only one of said heat transfer means is shown. Further heat transfer means of equal design are placed at a distance to each other within FBHE 24 (perpendicular to the plane of projection).
  • each of said means 28 is designed in a wall-like pattern and extending substantially parallel to the main flow direction of the solid particles on their way to and through the outlet port 30, symbolized in Figure 2 by arrow S.

  • the particulate material is circulated by said purging means within FBHE 24 in order to optimize heat transfer from the hot solid particles P onto the steam flowing within tube like heat transfer means 28.
  • FIG. 4 differs from that of Figures 2 , 3 insofar as two baffles 50, 52 extent from sealing 24c downwardly, ending shortly above heat transfer means 28. These baffles 50, 52 extend substantially perpendicular to a straight line between inlet port 22 and outlet port 30 (dotted line L).
  • Both baffles 50, 52 extend between opposite walls of FBHE 24 (only one, namely 24s is shown), being the walls bridging said walls 14w, 24w.
  • the baffles 50, 52 are arranged at a distance to each other.
  • Each of said baffles 50, 52 comprise one opening symbolized by dotted line O to allow pressure adjustment (equalization) within the inner space of FBHE 24.
  • the said baffle(s) 50, 52 may as well be designed like a curtain, fulfilling the same function as a continuous board, namely to urge the particulate material to flow through said channels C ( Figure 3 ) between adjacent heat transfer means 28 on their way between inlet port 22 and outlet port 30.
  • outlet port 30 is extended, namely protruding into circulating fluidized bed reactor 10.

  • tubes of group G2 are arranged closer to the outlet port 30 and adjacent to wall 14w while tubes of group G1 are arranged adjacent to wall 24w with a distance between groups G1 and G2.
  • Figure 6 is a top view of Figure 5 along line 6-6 in Figure 5 .
  • the fluidized bed heat exchanger 24 displays a different design around inlet port 22, which widens towards the inner space of chamber 24, wherein said widened section 22w is further inclined towards the bottom area 24b of FBHE 24 to provide a distributor means allowing the entering stream of solid particles to spread over substantially the full width of said inner space of chamber 24, wherein the width is defined by the distance of side wall 24s.

If air is fed along one of these channels all corresponding nozzles 46 will be activated to allow air to enter into FBHE 24.
  • discrete nozzle sets N1...N5 with discrete channels 48 make it possible to set different air pressure in different channels and accordingly to introduce air into the fluidized bed of solid particles within FBHE under different pressure at different areas to optimize homogenisation of the particles within the fluidized bed.
  • a similar design may be used to improve the syphon-type seal 26 between separator 18 and FBHE 24 or reactor 10 respectively, as illustrated in Fig. 8b .
  • the multiplicity of air nozzles 27 is split into three nozzles sets SN1, SN2 and SN3, each with a certain number of nozzles 27, and each coupled to a respective air duct D1, D2 and D3, feeding air to the respective nozzles 27 under same or different pressure.

  • the FBHE 24 is mounted in a suspended manner from separator 18.
  • the fluidized bed heat exchanger has no refractory lining; all walls are water cooled metal walls.
  • the hanging structure allows an integration of a syphon 26 with its return duct 26r without transferring mechanical forces or moments between the respective construction parts.
  • the lowermost point LP1 of outlet port 30 of fluidized bed heat exchanger 24 enters the circulating fluidized bed reactor 10 at a height of >0,15L, calculated from the lowermost end of the axial length L of CFBR 10.
  • the lowermost end is defined by grate 12 of the fluidized bed.
  • the minimum distance of >0,1 L, better >0,2L, allows to place the return means 30 out of the so called denseboard DB and avoids the risk of any backflow of solid particles from the fluidized bed within reactor 10 into the associated construction elements like FBHE 24.
  • This feature may be combined with sloped outlet ports 30 as disclosed in Figure 2 or sloped return ducts 26r.

Again: all three wall sections 14w of the common heat exchanger 24 are part of the reactor wall 14, i.e. a common water-cooled wall with integrated outlet openings 30.
