US 4307773. Fluid bed heat exchanger for contaminated gas
New Patents 2
387
A tube, particularly effective as a heat exchanger, is provided with inner fins and outer fins or pins, and is made by welding to one another a plurality of sections, having a wing or rib thereof curved according to a circle arc. The sections have a T, L-shaped cross-section or a converging wing U-shaped cross-section, and the like, a substantially Z-shaped cross-section, or a wide wing beam shaped cross-section, and the like, so that they provide also the outer fins.
A heat exchanger is presented in which heat from a hot contaminated fluid stream is transferred to granular media of a fluid bed. Such streams can issue from, for example, manufacturing processes such as glass furnaces, and magnetohydrodynamic power plant. The hot fluid stream is used to fluidize the media; ash, slag, condensed vapors and other contaminants often found therein are deposited on the media. The bed is kept from fouling by diluting the contaminants with large quantities of media and by keeping the media of the bed highly active. Heat is transferred to the media and is subsequently transferred from the heated media to a second fluid stream either by removing the media from the bed and contacting it directly with the second fluid stream or by submerging conduits in the fluid bed and directing the second fluid stream therethrough. Where a high effectiveness for the heat exchanger is desired, the hot fluid stream is passed through two or more fluid beds in series and the media flows from fluid bed to fluid bed, countercurrent to the flow of the hot fluid stream. Contaminants can be recovered from the media, from the fluid beds and from the exhaust fluid from the fluid beds.
