Compact Counterflow Fluidized-Bed Particle Heat Exchanger
Sector: Manufacturing (Industrial) • Location: Livermore, California, United States of America
Source: Department of Energy (DOE)
This project is designing and testing an alternative compact counterflow fluidized-bed (CCFB) particle heat exchanger in order to reduce the levelized cost of energy (LCOE) and levelized cost of storage (LCOS) for electrical grid and process-heat applications. In a counterflow heat exchanger the direction of flow of the working fluids are opposite to each other. This enables lower observed stresse

Description
Description | This project is designing and testing an alternative compact counterflow fluidized-bed (CCFB) particle heat exchanger in order to reduce the levelized cost of energy (LCOE) and levelized cost of storage (LCOS) for electrical grid and process-heat applications. In a counterflow heat exchanger the direction of flow of the working fluids are opposite to each other. This enables lower observed stresses and a more uniform rate of heat transfer when compared to parallel flow heat exchangers. Moving-packed bed heat exchangers have historically been expensive to manufacture and the desired performance requires very small plate or tube spacing, which may cause flowability issues at high temperatures. The project team will work with Babcock & Wilcox and TU Wien to develop and design the new technology. |
