Abstract (en)

A fluidized bed heat exchanger with a chamber (24) comprises a solid particles inlet port (22), a solid particles outlet port (30), arranged at a distance to the inlet port (22), means (46) for introducing a fluidizing gas from a bottom area into the chamber (24), and at least one heat transfer means (28) arranged within the chamber (24). The chamber walls (24a, 14w, 24w) are at least partially water-cooled. The heat exchanger comprises distribution means (22w) arranged in a transition region between the inlet port (22) and the chamber (24) and upstream of the heat transfer means (28) to allow distribution of the solid particles. The distribution means (22w) may be provided as the following construction elements: bar, knob, prism, grid, grate, pyramid, spiral, saw tooth, dowel, nib, and nozzle.
