| 摘要 |
An improved method and apparatus for cooling and recovering heat from soot-containing hot gases obtained by the partial combustion of hydrocarbons is disclosed. The improvement comprises partly cooling the hot gases by flowing them through one or more straight tubes of at least two meters in length at a mass velocity of at least 100 kg/m2/sec. The gases are subsequently further cooled in one or more helically coiled tubes connected to the straight tubes. The invention is particularly suitable for generating high pressure steam from hot gases obtained at moderate as well as high pressures. |
