WATERWALLS IN A FLUIDIZED BED REACTOR

摘要

A fluidized bed reactor generating heat has in its bottom part a grid for introduction of fluidizing gas into the rector and walls being made as waterwalls in which vertical water tubes are combined by flat plate material. The waterwalls are refractory lined in their lower part to withstand erosion and heat. The water tubes are bent outwards at an angle to the vertical plane in the intermediate section between the uncovered upper waterwall section and the refractory lined lower waterwall section in order to minimize erosion due to particles flowing downwards along the walls in the reactor.
