An experimental investigation of the heat-transfer coefficient to a spherical probe in a cyclone-bed chamber with fluidized bed in the “cold” and “hot” regimes has been carried out. The heat-transfer coefficient was determined by the regular thermal regime. The dependences of the heat-transfer coefficient in the vortex-bed furnace on the various parameters: the diameter of the outlet hole, the air flow rate, the share of the bottom blast and the location of the probe were determined. It is revealed that in the “cold” regime the heat-transfer coefficient has practically constant value in the radial direction, it almost does not depend on the diameter of the outlet hole and the share of the bottom blast and depends significantly on the position of the probe along the height of the furnace and the air flow rate. The effect of flow swirling on the heat-transfer coefficient in a cyclone-bed chamber with fluidized bed is determined. When the fuel burns (“hot” regime), the heat-transfer coefficient is not constant in the radial direction and accept the maximum values in the central area of the chamber. At the same time, the part of conductive-convective component in the total heat-transfer coefficient to the spherical probe, depending on its radial position, is estimated at 40–70 %. The results can be used in the design and creation of modern high-efficiency furnaces for burning local solid biofuels.

The heat transfer coefficient in the combustion chamber of industrial circulating flidized bed (CFB) boilers depends on many parameters as it is a result of multifactorial mechanisms proceeding in the furnace. Therefore, the development of an effective modeling tool, which allows for predicting the heat transfer coefficient is interesting as well as a timely subject, of high practical significance. The present paper deals with an innovative application of fuzzy logic-based (FL) method for the prediction of a heat transfer coefficient for superheaters of fluidized-bed boilers, especially circulating fluidized-bed combustors (CFBC). The approach deals with the modeling of heat transfer for the Omega Superheater, incorporated into the reaction chamber of an industrial 670 t/h CFBC. The height above the grid, bed temperature and voidage and temperature, gas velocity, and the boiler’s load constitute inputs. The developed Fuzzy Logic Heat (FLHeat) model predicts the local overall heat transfer coefficient of the Omega Superheater. The model is in good agreement with the measured data. The highest overall heat transfer coefficient is equal 220 W/(m2K) and can be achieved by the SH I superheater for the following inputs l = 20 m, tb = 900 °C, v = 0.95, u = 7 m/s, M-C-R = 100%. The proposed technique is an effective strategy and an option for other procedures of heat transfer coefficient evaluation.

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of gas flow velocity, size of sand particles, and the distance between tubes immersed in a fluidized bed on heat transfer coefficient. Experimental tests were conducted on a bundle of copper tubes of (12.5 mm) diameter and (320 mm) length arranged in a matrix (17×9) and immersed in a fluidized bed inside a plastic container. One of the tubes was used as a hot tube with a capacity of (122 W). (25 kg) of sand with three different diameters of sand particles (0.15, 0.3 and 0.6 mm) was used in these tests at ten speeds for gas flow (from 0.16 m/s to 0.516 m/s). The results showed a significant inverse effect of fluidized bed particles diameter on the heat transfer coefficient. Accordingly, the heat transfer coefficient for (0.15mm) diameter sand was found to be higher than that of (0.3 mm) and (0.6 mm) sand by about (3.124) and (6.868) times respectively, in all tests. The results showed good agreement with results from other studies conducted under the same conditions but with different sand particle size.

Experimental results of the total heat transfer coefficient between 12.7 mm dia copper tubes with four different rough surfaces and glass beads of three different sizes as taken in a 0.305 m × 0.305 m square fluidized bed as a function of fluidizing velocity are reported. The comparison of results for the rough and technically smooth tubes suggests that the heat transfer coefficient strongly depends on the ratio of pitch (Pf) to the average particle diameter (dp), where Pf is the distance between the two corresponding points on consecutive threads or knurls. By the proper choice of (Pf/dp) ratio, the maximum total heat transfer coefficient for V-thread tubes (hwfb) can be increased by as much as 40 percent over the value for a smooth tube with the same outside diameter. However, for values of (Pf/dp) less than 0.95, the maximum heat transfer coefficient for the V-thread rough tubes is smaller than the smooth tube having the same outside diameter. The qualitative variation of the heat transfer coefficient for rough tubes with (Pf/dp) is explained on the basis of the combined effect of contact geometry between the solid particles and the heat transfer surface, and the solids renewal rate at the surface. The present findings are critically compared with somewhat similar investigations from the literature on the heat transfer from horizontal or vertical rough tubes and tubes with small fins.
